If I buy a CB1100 will I become as wise as you guys?
Seriously, this a pretty philosophic group for a bunch of motorcycle riders.
That is meant as a complement, BTW

You will become as wise as many of us, but The ferret will always remain our Moto Yoda...
...although, a lot of that simply has to do with the way mickey (The ferret) speaks sometimes.
"Every day, taking a ride, you must!"

At one time I was one of the 4 smartest guys on this board!
Of course there were only 4 members then, but still
Even with RLETS I’m pretty far down on the list now

I guess the only way to find out is to buy a CB1100 and see what happens.
You really have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

If you buy a CB1100, doesn't that prove you are already very wise?

Isn't the relatively high wisdom level of this forum due to the average age of its participants (I'm 61, so I'm not being "ageist")? I know I'm much wiser than when I was 30; unfortunately I'm not as intelligent as I was then . . .

Now there is a discussion - wisdom vs intelligence.

Good judgement comes from experience.
And experience? That comes from poor judgement...
