Honda, like other manufacturers, purchases these from outside vendors. There's a VERY good chance you will not be able to buy just the plug. It probably is included in a harness.
But, try K&L Supply in California. They only sell aftermarket parts through dealers & have an extension assortment of electrical connectors. They probably sell them in 10 packs.

See [url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=4931&pid=83210#pid83210]this discussion about wiring in a gear indicator where the part is discussed. In an earlier post popgun mentions that he thinks it's made by Hitachi.

I cannot find that post that said they are Hitachi connectors. And I have looked. Wish I had saved it for reference.
So I searched on the internet for CB 1100 connectors and motorcycle-superstore has a kit of Deutsch connectors for our bike. Of course the kit is BIG bucks.
http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/120...tors-plugs I'm going to have to do some more research and try to find out just what we have.
If they are Deutsch and someone wants to mess with pinning or de-pinning them, Deutsch has videos on their site showing how. Having said that, the couple of connectors on the bike that I have messed with are extremely easy to do.

Good Honda Marine servicing dealers carry Honda's electrical plug and connector repair assortment kits to repair or replace corroded harness parts used on Honda Marine engines(outboards)in fresh and salt water conditions.
Honda auto service dealers also carry harness repair kit parts.
you will probably have to ask their top tech or service manager at either dealer. they will also have a listing of available electrical service parts by photo.

Paul,
Thanks for that! I'm going to stop in at my dealer and see what the Service Manager and head mechanic says. He has 40 or so years with Honda so he might be able to help.

Popgun, [url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=5880&pid=90384]this was the first mention I could find. Then [url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=4931&pid=83150]this.
I can't find anything else on the forum either.

Cormanus,
I know I read it on here, and there was a link to a site that sold Hitachi connectors. Oh well. If they are Deutsch connectors they should be pretty easy to find. Even some modern outboards use them and maybe even Honda outboards, like Paul mentioned. I think they are used a lot in the auto industry as well.
I wonder if maybe I read it on the UK site before this one came on-line. And maybe the guy was wrong. I haven't been there in a while. Guess I'll have to search it.

Hadn't thought about the UK site. Definitely can't find it here unless 'Hitachi' was misspelled in the original post.
In any event, it's almost as easy to cut it off and replace it with some other form of plug.

They answered that they have no this kind of plugs. Ask Honda dealer.
