He was leaning toward the Ducati Scrambler until he discovered a new 2014 CB1100 at a local dealer discounted to just $7400. He has arranged a test ride on the CB for tomorrow morning and if he likes it he's pulling the trigger.
Maybe a new CB in the family.
I am that brother, and yes, I just picked up my brand new 2014 CB1100 this morning for $7008. Best deal on a bike in town. And, it's the finest motorcycle I have ever ridden. Started riding 45 years ago and loved riding my brother's '73 750 BMW, but this bike has made me forget about every other motorcycle in the world (like finally meeting that one girl who makes you forget about every woman in the world!). She's the best! Thanks to my brother who steered me toward this one!

Me and my beer gut -- it's gone now and I'm down to 164 lbs. Have to get an updated pic of us soon. Thanks for the post, brother!
