(08-09-2018, 03:33 AM)HigginsNYC_imp Wrote: Hello all,

I wanted to show off my 2013 CB1100 and call out the mods. Some came with the bike, some are mine. Just a run down in case anyone is interested or can offer advice/suggestions.

I'm a vintage lover on most days - so admittedly I trend toward making it look more retro, rather than modern. I'm loving the new tech - just want to stay "classic."

That said - the bike came with:

-Full 4into1 Yoshimura stainless black ceramic coated exhaust.
-Front and rear HyperPro shocks
-Graphite Black Color CB1100 side covers
-MFW variable mount rider footpegs
-Rizoma mirrors
-Honda heated grips
-Road Comet front fly screen fairing (I only mount it for open road rides)

I added and modified:

-Lucas Tai light and bullet turn signals from: MaundSpeed.com
-Stock fuel tank, custom painted for a smaller, flatter, vintage inspired look.
-Honda Motors NOS 60's tank bages
-Power Commander V - mapped to Yosh and K&N filter specs.
-BatteryTender USP port for phone/gps
-Lower Honda OEM Type II handlebar from Samurider.com
-Painted the step bars black to match the frame.

Eventually I'd like to:
-Get a set of spoked rims!
-Look into smaller fenders - possible painted rather than chrome


Glad to be on the forum. I'll post any updates as I finish them... for now, I just need to ride her!

I have the map file sent to me from Power Commander - I plan to post in Specs/Mechanical.

Great photo! Really like your bike. The custom color on the tank with that badge is perfect.

I think you should keep those cast wheels with the polished rims. They just look right.

Thanks guys. I'm on the fence about the rims... but spokes are super expensive... so the mags will do nicely and might grow on me.

Looks great just the way it is, that stripe on the tank is a nice touch.

Thanks. I was nervous about the stripe when I designed it... but it's growing on me. Makes it quicker too! Wink

And I agree with Cormanus.

As it sits right now your bike reflects what would appear to be a well thought out and executed vision.
