The Wishbone-Equipped CB1100 - bflint - 07-14-2020
Goldwing style front suspension on future models?

Partway down the article "The Wishbone-Equipped CB1100" ... not my CB1100 please.
I understand that its probably a more "retro" design (dawn of two wheel vehicles) but front struts are sexy

geealou no thanks. But it does show you Honda's faith in the CB 1100.

Well....that is.... something...
I can't say anything until I see it on a put together bike...and even then may need to ride it.
Kinda like a Tesla...I am in no rush to jump on something that could get to the point that I will have no other choice so for now will enjoy old school while I can.

No. Just no.

It's just ugly.
Also, performancewise, I don't see how getting steering forces going through all that (see "items" 111-61-112) could give any good feedback while riding.
There are much simpler solutions that would work better.

Wonder how they want to put on the headlight....

If that happens, there will be no longer classic CB1100
. I keep mine as long as possible.

It is a game changer on the new Goldwing. Smooth riding like never before. I’d love to see it and demo a CB1100 with this setup.

I saw a guy yesterday on the BRP with the wish bone front , look very nice on his gold wing in silver paint and he loved it . I think that it would look terrible on a CB 1100.

Somehow I don't see them actually doing this...
