2014 CB1100 availability - TCBronson_imp - 09-16-2016
I see black 2014 CB1100's available at local Honda dealers and on Ebay, but no red Deluxe models. I personally don't like the all black engine and I do like the 4 into 2 pipes better. Anybody have any idea why there are only black bikes available? I hesitate buying a new black bike and spending a bunch to make it look more like the red bike. I have tried looking for a used Deluxe and haven't had any luck locally.

At this point, you probably will be waiting a long time for a DLX. I too thought that waiting for the DLX is what I wanted. Larger gas tank, ABS, etc etc. But if I had waited, I'd not be driving my 2014 std cb1100. Trust me, it may not be a DLX, but holy hell is it the best bike i've ever ridden. It's seriously worth it.
I too didn't really enjoy the kind of blacked out stance of the STD, but once I took some pictures of it with my good camera and lenses and not some camera phone, this bike is really very understated and beautiful. I've posted these up before but here ya go. Don't miss out on this bike by waiting unless you are 100% dead set on the DLX.

EON, Honda only brought in around 300 DLX's. I believe they had to be ordered by a dealer(ie, special order) before Honda sent them. Finding a new one unsold is probably not going to happen. You have to find a used one and buy it. Right now. No matter where it is.
Most dealers never had one. My dealer did not and told me at the time they wouldn't order one, unless someone paid for it first.
RE: 2014 CB1100 availability - LongRanger_imp - 09-16-2016
The DLX's have been sold out for over a year. Your only bet at this point is to find a nice, clean, used one. They're out there.

Great shots, Eon.
TC, I highly recommend you try to wrangle a test ride of one of the 2014 non-Deluxe models available. You might not care so much about the color scheme after that.
The addition of ABS would have helped me feel better about buying a new bike (vs. used), especially in this weight class, but at the price I ended up paying for a non-Deluxe I could probably afford to add ABS later.

He's not giving that one away, but it is a very nice bike, obviously well-cared for. What is that piece of metal with the holes in it in the approximate area of the stator and engine guard?
RE: 2014 CB1100 availability - Cormanus - 09-16-2016
Postoak, do you mean the touring pegs that are attached to the guards and folded up?
RE: 2014 CB1100 availability - postoak_imp - 09-16-2016
I guess so, it's hard to see what they are in the photo. Thanks.
