Have not bought one Tink but called two dealers in the south and they are both at 10,500 give or take a hundred for the DLX. Southern Powersports in Chatanooga and Abernathy Honda in Union City TN.

Been thinking about it for a while.
Went to the local dealer who is pretty tough to deal with, so went to a Honda store in Marshall, TX that I have dealt with before.
For example, I bought a 300 2 wheel drive ATV from them in 1986. Today, choke it, touch the starter, and it springs to life. Runs like a charm despite hard use. Only thing ever done -- change oil, filters, batteries, rear end oil, etc/tires of course. Carb never rebuilt. The thing can not be destroyed - one of the reason Honda stopped building them according to the dealer.
Bottom line - did not have a CB1100 DLX, red. Did not want a 2013, but they had one in the crate in the warehouse. We found it and cut the covering off it - like it, but wanted the 2014.
They said they were in the mid 8's on the 2013, I'm considering it.
They said they would look around for a red 2014 Deluxe (they have 2 other stores), wanted $10,800. Told them I had seen them at $10,300 (on this board) - they replied, bet we can get there, let's get you one.
So. I'm on hold. Almost $2 K difference on 13 v 14. I want the 14 but money talks. Opinions on this appreciated.

Get what what sense, make a list of pro and cons. Or if you are an emotion person versus logic, then go for it.

Spare a thought for us Brits.
Quite a few 2013 models about at knock down prices, but it seems that if you placed an order for a 2014 EX (roughly equivalent to your DLX) you won't get it until 2015.
Dealer tells me that the entire allocation for the UK for 2015 was 64 bikes.
So when my local dealer gets a 2014 EX back, with low (250) miles, the fool thinks he can get away with a price tag of just £500 less than new list price.
I mean what idiot would pay that sort of money to get their hands on the latest and best model?

Buy the 2014 DLX !!! The biggest regrets in life are the things you did not do.
RE: Price You Paid for Your CB - DAC - 07-26-2014
I faced the same decision, bought the DLX.
RE: Price You Paid for Your CB - Jayimpalaman_imp - 07-26-2014
I paid $00.000. I did not pay anything!!! I traded outright. My 2011 Victory Crossroads for a brand new 2013 Honda CB1100!!! How many dealers would do that? 1, 2, how about NONE!!! But, my dealer did!! God Bless...

I found a 2013 for 8400 with TL 9200 OTD. I will need to drive 400 miles to get it. I am going to try to get the local dealer to meet it when they open Tuesday.
Another local dealer has a 2014 dlx. I would love to buy one if I could get it OTD for 11K. (9% for TL in CA) I haven't even tried to negotiate on a 14.
I really like the plain engine. I drove a 13 today and I didn't really miss the 6th gear until I hit 80-90MPH, which I won't be doing often. Even at 80MPH it was so smooth, I hardly noticed it.
For 2-3K, it's hard for me to justify the plain engine and 6th gear.
RE: Price You Paid for Your CB - the Ferret - 07-26-2014
AL there are a lot of differences besides the 6 th gear. I will try and list them but usually forget a few
ABS standard
.7 gallon larger fuel tank
Gear indicator
Trip computer
Taller patterned seat
Taller handlebars
4 into 2 pipes
Chrome head pipes
Polished brake and master cylinder covers
Chrome bar ends
Polished passenger grab rail
Polished top triple tree
Metal counter shaft sprocket cover
Color matched side covers
Different instruments
Smaller turn signals
Repositioned head light
Different switch pods on the bars
Silver engine
Silver wheels
Any of that appeal to you?

Thanks for the rundown. I knew some of them, but not all. The only things I think I will notice are the 6th gear and the engine color.
I wish there wasn't such a big price difference to make the choice easier.
