Hello All,
I used to be a member of the old forum, before it apparently went defunct. I just found your new forum, so I set up an account.
I saw the new Royal Enfield Bullet 650 Twin and the vintage styling made me think of you guys. Looks like it's not yet up on their US website, but apparently it's being delivered in the UK.

Welcome home! We have merged your prior threads and posts into your recently registered account. Hopefully, you will see everything you posted on the previous Forum.
Thanks for the Royal Enfield video. If you still own your CB1100, we would love to see a picture and get an update. David

Stichill! Great to see you back. Hope you've still got your CB1100. As for Royal Enfield, do you have one?
You know what? I actually would like a pickle.

Stichill, welcome back.
There's a difference in riding a naked bike and riding a bike naked.
Won't make that mistake again.

Hey all, thanks for the warm welcome! And thanks @rdprdp01 for migrating all my old threads over here.

Can you migrate or PM me my old avatar? It's Hirofumi Fukunaga smoking a cigarette while standing by a CB1100. I can't find it again via web or AI search. (edit: found it!)
@Gone in 60, glas you're not actually gone in 60!
Funny thing, I never did buy a CB1100. I wanted to, but the last DLX - in the country - got sold out from under me. I looked pretty hard at the EX later, but the spoked wheels / inner tubes spooked me, and changing to cast wheels for tubeless tires is not a trivial exercise. I wanted my CB1100 to have a silver engine and wheels like this 2013 I rented in Germany that year.
I guess the RE Bullet 650 Twin also has spoked wheels / tubes, but it sure is a nice-looking bike that appears to be made with high quality.
