I have been hanging around here since like last summer last year and finally decided to purchase a 2014 Deluxe. I will take delivery of it probably the tail end of next week. It is still in a crate at the dealer. I am pretty excited as I have let a few slip through my fingers before I bought one. I know there are pretty slim picking as far as new inventory out there. I appreciate everyone on this sight as I have learned quite a bit about the bike from here. I come from BMW R1200RT's and my last bike was a ST1300 that I sold about five years ago. I was going to try to find a CB750 or CB500 but the prices are getting a tad high and besides I don't think I have seen a motorcycle that I like the looks of better than the 14 Deluxe. I can't wait to get it and start riding. It will be a new thing for me to ride a non fairing motorcycle but I don't believe I do that kind of riding anymore. I will post pictures when I get it. Thanks again

Congratulations and welcome. I remember the day I took delivery, I kept going back to the garage that night. Enjoy the smiles.

Awesome man, congrats. I picked up my son Erics CB fresh out of the crate in Toledo a while back. Had a nice road trip back to Florida on it. Great bike, you're gonna love it

Howdy and welcome to the forum. You have excellent taste in motorcycles IMO (still have my ST 1300 though lol)

This bike, for a certain segment of the motorcycle rider, really hits some buttons that have not been hit in a long time.
I'd be in serious financial trouble if Honda came out with a modern version, in the retro theme, of the CJ360T and CB450 as well as a refresh of the GB500 (make it a 650 this time with the motor in current use - but add EFI please!!!!).

Hello and welcome to the forum.
I let a 2013 slip through my fingers, so I know how you felt, but scored a 2014 last April almost by chance. I just happened to be there when the truck arrived with two on board so I had first dibs.
It's a great motorcycle. Enjoy

Welcome and excellent choice drodg. I too sold my BMW and came back to Honda. Mine was a K1200 GT, great bike but too complicated. The CB will amaze you.

Welcome! I too came here via the ex-BMW route. Had six of them all at different times, and now I find myself with three Hondas in the garage. Still trying to figure out how that happened!
