...if the CB1100 did not exist, I'd be wishing I kept my 2012 Triumph Bonneville 865cc air cooled parallel twin...or my 2002 Sportster 1200 Sport. The Moto Guzzi experience was worth the $, but ultimately disappointing. I am glad that the CB was my final ride.
If H-D still made a lighter weight rigid mount motor to frame, kept the Keihin CV40 carb, not gone to CANBus and had not lowered most models, which kills the lean angle, I would not mind one more Sportste.
Mine were good in the SoCal canyons, but long distances at 80 were not the best vibs. That is why I laugh when someone comments negatively about CB smoothness!
