Looks like they kept the horn in the same location even though they raised the headlight. The Road Comet fairing wouldn't work like this (without an adapter) since it mounts to the horn and headlight brackets.

2 different videos of the 2014 (Europe?)

Has anyone commented on whether the spoke wheels are tubeless or not?

At first I thought, wow, cool, spoke wheels! Then I remembered what it's like to clean them...

I was actually wondering about this myself. I by far prefer the black cast wheels with the polished rims over any other option. But I'm glad that Honda is offering the spoked rims for anyone who desires them (wherever the EX model is going to be offered that is). But whether they use tubes or are tubeless is not something that I would want to overlook.

At about 1:04 in the second video you posted there's an all black version with matte black tank and different striping. If the U.S. gets that version I would seriously consider trading in my '13. In my eyes Honda has always been notoriously stingy on color choices in the states, we could end up getting another single color for 2014. Too early to get excited.

If they bring to the States a bike with a 6spd, revised dash with gear indicator, dual exhaust with center stand, and that awesome blue color, I'm gonna be really pissed.

That is, until I trade-in my 2013 for that exact referenced bike. I'll still be angry at Honda for putting me through this trouble, but it'll be worth it.

My Griso has black rims with spokes. Oh man they do look good! I'm not all that big on cleaning so it's not really an issue for me.

Each spoke has an o-ring so it's tubeless tires for me. If the Honda has tubed tires that may be a deal breaker for me (I'm dreaming, unless I win the lottery I ain't buying it anyway).

Otherwise; I'm sorely tempted if it comes over here. Sorely tempted.

The 6 speed I can do without. The CB11 is already the lowest revving bike at highway speed that I've owned.

I like what they did with the side covers and exhaust on the EX bike. They are closer to "classic Honda" than the current ones.
...but would the new tank also fit to the old gauge meter in the old dashboard? I do not know.

Quote: The 6 speed I can do without. The CB11 is already the lowest revving bike at highway speed that I've owned. Yes, that's right. But just yesterday I did a little trip on the Autobahn with 140 km/h or a bit more (above 90 MPH) and thought it would be nice to even lower the RPMs by another 500 or 700...

Quote: I like what they did with the side covers and exhaust on the EX bike. They are closer to "classic Honda" than the current ones. Yes, but as said already before, the CB 1100 is a modern interpretation of a classic bike, that is what I like with the model. The CB 1100 EX is for me too much retro style.

This is one thing, I do not understand: For me the new (higher) head lamps do not look better, indeed it looks worse... Sad

According to the (German) tech specs the CB 1100 EX comes with so called "high shoulder rims" which might mean that the tires are tubeless

Oh Boy. My 2013 CB with 1550 miles on it is now totally obsolete. I'm so excited.Angry

Has anybody got any information about the speed cutter in the 2014 models?
