More rides - praise Honda
#1

Guess where I spend Saturday and Sunday : 589 miles in the saddle of this ... incredible, wonderful, marvelous, delightful ... UJM. Some of you guys may have gotten so used to their CB1100 during the years, that you do no longer see how special she is. But this is by far the most "homogeneous", smoothest and most authentic rides I have ever had in a long time. You really think one needs more flash or dash ?

Thank you Honda. Adios BMW and HD (I never owned any of these Cool ).
I wouldn't sell or trade this last gigantic M/C for nothing.

When one says it like that, you know they have arrived. This is the effect of the CB1100.

I've often been heard saying they'll have to bury me with this bike, and change the oil before they bury it because i'm still going to be putting miles on it.

Congratulations Gecko, it's obvious that you "get it"! Now, imagine how much fun it would be to join 20 or so equally passionate friends for the 2023 CB1100 Forum rally!

When I test-rode my CB, I kept saying "This is like buttah!" out loud inside my helmet. I've had H-Ds, Kawis, Yamahas, Aprilias, but I've had four Hondas, and liked them the best. I'm a long-time Honda fan; I had a 1994 Acura Legend V-6 Coupe that I kept for 25 years, and my wife and I both drive Hondas, she a CR-V, me an Accord V-6 Coupe, Honda outboards, Honda generators. If they made a bi-plane, I would take flying lessons. I know they make jets.

I've owned two and rented many H-Ds, and owned a BMW for some years, but my fave bike is the CB.
