Just ran across this while surfing... you can buy a detailed 3D computer model of a CB1100 and many other vehicles. It says 2010 but it looks like a 2014 DLX. Pretty cool but expensive at $95. Check out all the different views and the video:

Neat, but, as you say, expensive.

It looks like they are just selling the files and you print your own products?

I'd be tempted to buy it to aid with designing accessories for my bike. I just want to know how accurate the model is before spending money.

I think I am right in saying you would also need 3d modelling and rendering software to read the purchased code and present the workable images to your screen.
What you would do with it after that I am not sure. It looks though a generally good and accurate 'generic' CB1100 to me.

If your goal is to print a 3D model, the software is available for free. If you want to manipulate the model, then you need software that generally costs some money.

Blender is a (very good, but also complicated) 3D modeling tool. They say they provide the file format for Blender as well, so one could imagine that you can modify it also with Blender ("imagine" because the devil is in the (3D) details). And they provide the file format for google sketchup as well.
I think, the 95$ are worth the work they had with the 3D model, but still too much for me.
