After much shopping...

I previously test rode a 2014 CB1100 and thought it was too small for my 6' 2" frame. After evaluating and test riding several other "retro" bikes I gave the Honda a second chance. The Corbin seat and lower superbike bars on the bike I purchased put my lanky frame in a much better riding posture.

The Kawasaki Z900RS (my 2nd choice), with a taller seat height was ergonomically a good fit, but I just didn't warm up to the overall style and twitchy throttle response. I also didn't care for the look of the bulbous tank, monoshock, and hideous radiator. Also, MUCH more expensive.

Features on my CB1100 include:
Yoshimura RSCV exhaust
Corbin Gunfighter seat
Dechromed fenders
LED signals
Superbike bars
Rizoma bar end mirrors
Metzeler tires
Piggyback shocks (Kawasaki Zephyr)

The bike only had 2400 miles. Tastefully modified, imho. Previous owner also included all the stock parts. Overall, I'm extremely happy with the purchase!

Love me some black CB11 sexiness. Congrats on the bike, she's a beauty and looks very well equipped.
