There's a picture of the bike front on which makes it clearer.

After alot of calling around, checking and double checking with various Honda dealers in Texas, and even in nearby Louisiana, I purchased what I believe was the second to the last 2014 DLX in Texas still available from a Honda dealer. The other one that I didn't buy was a "demo" that the owner of the Honda dealership (close to San Antonio) had put about 400 miles on it. Anyway, the DLX I bought from a dealer about an hour south of Houston in March 2015, and had 26 (demo?) miles on it when I picked it up new . . .

I was more than a little surprised that after finally deciding to "pull the trigger" on a CB that I couldn't "readily" locate and buy a DLX. Once I figured out there weren't that many DLX's still available new from a dealership in my "neck of the woods", I went ahead a quickly secured the deal.

Good luck with the bike hunting. I'm guessing you'll find a gently used DLX and love it . . . .

I hesitate buying a new black bike and spending a bunch to make it look more like the red bike. I have tried looking for a used Deluxe and haven't had any luck locally.

At this point, you probably will be waiting a long time for a DLX. I too thought that waiting for the DLX is what I wanted. Larger gas tank, ABS, etc etc. But if I had waited, I'd not be driving my 2014 std cb1100. Trust me, it may not be a DLX, but holy hell is it the best bike i've ever ridden. It's seriously worth it.

I too didn't really enjoy the kind of blacked out stance of the STD, but once I took some pictures of it with my good camera and lenses and not some camera phone, this bike is really very understated and beautiful. I've posted these up before but here ya go. Don't miss out on this bike by waiting unless you are 100% dead set on the DLX.

Eonzhiglo, Those are some seriously awesome photos! They really are amazing!!! But I kind of feel the same way as you (really like how the silver engine & wheels "pop", and love the dual exhaust & red color), but the all black STD model is really growing on me. I looked at one at a local dealer the other day, and it really is pretty sharp. I've never really cared for the totally blacked out look, but at least the STD does have quite a bit of gloss black, which looks great. I just don't like too much matte black. But come to think of it, one of my all-time favorite bikes is pretty black too (my 96 Trident 900).

So who knows - I may end up in the "black" CB1100 camp after all Rolleyes

I've been drawn to the CB1100 for quite a while now, just never really pulled the trigger. One of these days....

Your photos do make the bike look really good! I just wanted the more retro look.

Finding a new one unsold is probably not going to happen. You have to find a used one and buy it. Right now. No matter where it is.

Most dealers never had one. My dealer did not and told me at the time they wouldn't order one, unless someone paid for it first.

Wow, I did not realize that Honda only sent 300 units for the whole USA, that is way less than one unit per dealer! I don't understand why Honda would do that. There are several black bikes available for under $8000, I just hate to spend that much and then get the tank and side covers painted along with the other accessories I would like to add to make it more retro. I think I would have way more invested than the bike would be worth, not that I expect to get all my money back.

Be cheaper (much) to find a clean used 2013 (good availability) and buy red side covers and a Moriwaki 4 into 2 system from Samurider.

RE: 2014 CB1100 availability - postoak_imp - 09-16-2016

Yeah, there's a 2013 on sale here for $4500.

I agree with Ferrett and is what I did because I love the Honda red. I also had to have dual mufflers and really liked the 2013 two tone wheels. Have fun!
