 My first sighting..
#1

I have been top dog in Delaware for over a year now, than saw this one on Main Street Newark today.....and it's a 2014....but my ECU has been flashed....so I may still retain top spot :-)
Never saw the owner, maybe he was watching me from inside one of the restaurants.

Interesting, must be a traveling man. Shield, GPS, trunk. Should have left a note on the seat inviting him to join the forum.

Yeah, that is a heck of a windshield....note would have been good idea.....I was walking by with my wife, not on my CB.
This is a small state, bound to see him again now, especially once the word gets out "HikerToo" is looking for him ! :-)

Well he must have found Takashi because you can't get that box in the states anywhere else.

The mounting hardware definitely looks like National Cycle. The only full size shield that they list for the CB1100 is the Plexistar 2. This year's version of the Plexi 2 has odd cut outs on either side, which don't appear on the bike pictured. If I had to guess, I'd say it's last year's Plexi 2 or possibly the Plexi GT. The GT isn't listed in the CB1100 fitment guide, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't fit.

I'm looking at getting a full size shield for this winter and I'd love to know which one it is. I'd prefer the full coverage Plexi 3, but last year I tried to fit the one from my CB750 onto the CB11 and the lowers were wedged hard against the front turn signals.

BTW, I've had my CB11 for over a year and a half and still haven't seen another one in the wild.

I have seen four other CB's out in the wild and none are members of the forum. I need to start taking pictures of these just like you did Hiker.

I work about a mile from Biltwell Inc and I saw a '13 cb1100 pulling out in front of me! I cruised up next to him and waived! Went a few miles in the same lane. I also saw a group of Tw250 riders in town. Nice seeing metric bikes ride in groups in my town, usually it's only harleys.
