wait, is that how it works?

so if it had 4 individual exhaust, it would sound like 4 single cylinder engines running?

I like that revised sound, especially at high revs.

Also, did you catch that new LED tail light look?
I thought it had too many segmented dots to give it a thumbs up.
Would rather see some type of lens to break up the dots and
give it an even brightness.

LEDs have a very narrow beam. That is why you usually see them in clusters, or an opaque lamp that diffuses the beam. The beam is something like a seal beamed bulb. The beam is very narrow, but appears very bright.

LEDs appear very bright to our eyes when you look right at them. But I believe it is more light spectrum than candle power. A lot of owners of the new LED equipped CB500s are not impressed with the LED headlights.

If you look at the pictures of the 2017 CB1100 EX headlight, there appears to be multiple LEDs installed.

Yeah, I can't tell if jimgl3 is trolling or not - if serious, then will I be able to get a 4 into 2 exhaust for my 2014 Standard to get a similar sound? I actually like it!
