RE: Average CB1100 Rider Age - Hiram E. Varona_imp - 03-18-2015
I'm 64. Owned a CB 750 in the early 80's that I took down to Miami from N.J in 1983. had that bike 10 yrs. Bought a Kawasaki Vulcan twin in 92 (hated it the thing) stopped riding after 2002 since I could not find a bike like my original 750. Last year I visited a Honda dealer and saw the CB 1100. I bought a 2014 Deluxe in Feb. of this year. Today the odometer read 1750 miles. I installed the Honda luggage rack and will hopefully install some kind of fairing (the wind is killing me!) and then nothing will keep me from taking on the long rides I use to take when I was younger and much braver than I am today.

44, they were just before my time being I was born in 1970 but still remember seeing them all around. I would love to have a replica of my old 1984 GPZ 750 Turbo.

51, just like the looks of the older bikes. Started with a Honda QA50 in the 60,s and have been hooked ever since. This is a great site. Thanks

Turned 72 this past January. Traded my VT1100C Cruiser for a lot more pep with the
CB1100. Never rode a 750 but had a CB650Custom for years.

44 and this is my first Honda motorcycle. My first street bike was a 1981 GPZ 550 and then I had a series of KZ900 and KZ1000 before owning a couple of Ducatis. This bike had everything I was looking for (styling, power, comfort (have to get a taller seat still), and reliability).

43. I'm riding again after many years away, and I really enjoy the CB. I like the retro look, it has enough power, good brakes, and one of the slickest gearboxes I've ever used. Just an enjoyable motorcycle all-around.

I am 66 years old. I have been riding for the last 40 years steadily.
Even with some fairly serious health issues. I still ride. This bike is
so good. I have gotten more comments on it than any other single
bike that I have owned. It so reminds me of my first bike. A 1979
CB650 Honda.

Wow I was 63 when this poll started lol (now 65)
Looks like the 46 to 65 age group still buys the biggest qty of this bike with 61% of responders fitting into that category. I am still amazed we have 4 owners over 75, and 35 between 66 and 74. (of course next time this year I will be in that group... GADS!)

Add another, 47. I grew up on dirt bikes. Hate my feet in front of me on the street but I'm well past the crotch rocket stage. So, the CB fits me perfectly.
RE: Average CB1100 Rider Age - redbirds_imp - 06-17-2015
65 when the poll began, 67 now. Time flies when you're having fun.
