There are two versions: the RS, which is in the pic above, with the fancy suspensions and radial brakes, and 17-inch cast wheels and the EX, with 18-inch spoked wheels, and basic suspension-brake setup. Both have slipper clutch.

some more info here:

personally I prefer my 2013 standard, due to the shape of the tank, and more authentic retro look, but I'm really glad the model lives on. I hope it will be popular, but not so sure, with the R9T and Thruxton for competition...

RE: 2017 CB1100 Revealed - Riko_imp - 10-04-2016

some things are better (seat looks cool, the horn)

most things look worse imo (that tank...omg)

and some things are worth to try out (blinkers and headlight)

not sure what to think about the piggy back shocks
but for the front Honda should have gone for upside down forks on the sporty model, like this guy did:

Swingarm looks beefy- and aluminum.

Glad to see they did 'intake tract' work on the engine. Cams are probably different as well.

Tail light is smaller.

Overall both models look pretty cool. The tank shape is growing on me, but still looks kind of strange from the rear view especially. I like the silver heads and black cyl barrels on the EX, too bad the RS doesn't have that also. I also think the RS wheels don't look quite right for this bike; a Comstar-style wheel would have looked way better. These wheels look a lot like the current CB500 wheels to me.
Now, the big question for me is will they sell it in the US????

and the new model has a fat 180/55 ZR17 rear tire! Idea

Man, that video...my son can't grow to motorcycling age fast enough. Smile

RE: 2017 CB1100 Revealed - Riko_imp - 10-04-2016

hmm, the rear of the new model looks very interesting, a fat 180 tyre and 70mm shorter dual exhaust...

The new tank holds 4.43 gallons, compared to 4.76 for the DLX and 3.86 for the '13 and '14 Standards.
