Good to see the US market finally gets the nice tyres with the pesky yellow stripe on!

Is it different with the engine running, because I find it harder to read the new 'dashboard' than the relic on my 'old' CB?

The new instruments are very nice and easy to read while riding. My only complaint is the size and location on the new turn signal indicators. Small and low. Imo Honda should have foregone the little wing emblem at the top of the 14 instruments and put the indicators up there.

Flynrider - what goodies did you get from Mr T?

Popgun - LOL, so true. I'm contemplating my 22nd purcchase from Takashi.

Ferret - a picture of the bottom part of my driveway - before and after:

From Takashi I got the fork brace and chrome chain cover from Plot, the engine guards from Over, the red side covers (with matching stripe) from Force Design with gold CB1100 emblems. The side covers are made to order, so it's going to delay delivery til around the end of the month

I also got the H&B Alurack from Motomachines. That showed up 3 days after I ordered it and is already on the bike (I like it!)

Still tossing around the idea of a K&H seat.

My plan for farkles was to ride the bike stock for the 1st year and see what everyone else was getting. Then pick and choose. Thanks, Forum!

Flynrider - excellent farkles. That's what I call a "GOOOD START" Big Grin

I don't think he paid for it at all. It was a gift from Honda.
