I came back to motorcycling last summer after a thirty-five year hiatus. But, I was not idle during that hiatus. I was very much into Mountain Bike cycling while raising a family and earning a livelihood. After riding many lighter aluminum frame bikes, I came to appreciate the heavier but nimbler steel frame for a mountain bike. I think that might apply to why I love the ride of the CB1100 as well.
Hence the old saying "go with your gut". Yours is likely sure to be a long-term ownership experience!

Just imagine how you'll enjoy this bike on your first 70 degree sunny day!

Yeah, I had that great feeling for about 15 minutes Monday evening, even though it was 45°F . . . sorry you're not feeling the same about your '14.
Don't tell the guys on that "other" forum, but I sold the Guzzi. Tried to like it for three years and just don't.

Wrong or not, all that matters is the CB. Congrats! We all know how you feel! Awesome bike.
