Every time I switch to my CB from my other bikes I end up honking a lot the first ten minutes.

I would also love to see the tank/side cover swap out photos. Will the tank work with the stock 2017 EX seat?

What color tank is that for the 2104 standard?

RE: Thoughts after 1 month of ownership - Mscb1100_imp - 06-02-2018

Billet Silver Metallic Clearcoat
Same color as Jeep in the background. It had a factory paint defect repaired the week before the rally so I had the painter to mix some extra paint to cover my black tank, side covers, headlight bucket and tach/Speedo covers.

Hey Alp.... On my BMW I was used to cancelling the signal as part of the turn, and find that I forget after-the-fact. I've already mostly adjusted though and it'll work itself out in the end.

Regarding 6th, I was just commenting that the bike could rev lower at highway speeds and probably still be fine. Again though, probably just another area where my mindset needs a bit of adjustment....

We'll see regarding the seat. Samurider says so. I'll definitely post pics of the operation. Should see the tank and side covers in a couple of weeks...
Also, just purchased TourMaster saddle bags for commuting to work based on what was posted on this site. What a great resource!
