I can certainly understand your apprehension about owning this particular bike in the future. Good luck with whatever route you take in the future.All the same I would not recommend replacing your CB1100 with an XSR.
Fow what it's worth I have ridden the XSR and my son has an 2016 FJ-09, and the fueling is far and away better than first year model FZ's which were nearly unrideable.
I'm not defending the bike because I love it, just pointing out that technology can fail in any bike. The CB1100 is not known for these kinds of failures. But I've gotten fed up with a couple of bikes that I actually liked even better than my CB1100: a Hawk GT with a fueling issue I couldn't resolve comes to mind, I finally just traded it in. You just have to move on.
