I can't believe its been 5 years since I bought this Deluxe!

Due to a few serious life challenges, shortly after I bought this bike it went into mothballs.

Today it is back out in the light of day. I knew the miles were low, but I had forgotten just how low.

Is this the lowest mile 2014 Deluxe on the planet? Could be, but I plan to add some miles to it finally.

Wow, get that thing on the road and ride it! Congratulations on getting to the point that you're able to enjoy it. I've had shorter periods of time where I couldn't ride and it drove me nuts. Five years must have been terrible to manage.

I should say that the bike was in purgatory, I wasn't. I was more than happy to do what needed to be done.

Hi Dave, I am on wildguzzi also and noticed your cb1100 as I have one too. I am desperately in need of a hip replacement and I can only ride the bike for 60 miles or less. It is a great bike!

My hip replacement was almost 6 months ago. The best thing ever!!
