I've been thinking for months about which direction I want to take my CB in....do I wanna leave it stock, cafe it, make it more touring friendly?? Then i was out goofing off with a buddy on a ZRX1100 and it hit me.
Let me explain...We were way out in the middle of nowhere and he wanted to see what the CB would do against his mighty Rex. We slow down and put them in 2nd and pinned it - the CB stayed neck and neck all the way to 4th when we let off. You could tell he was shocked. LOL in all fairness I was kinda shocked myself!
I started thinking- it would be pretty damn funny if I turned this thing into the ultimate sleeper. Lookswise who would suspect the innocent looking, retro, you meet the nicest people on a Honda CB! And I bet with some simple tinkering this thing could be a little stoplight-to-stoplight screamer.
I was talkin to a different buddy today whose bigtime into drag racing, he put a 40-shot of Nitrous on his gixxer 1k and said it was insane. LOL the wheels started turning in my mind.
You could have a ball on this thing with a new airbox, free-flowing exhaust, PCV (with 2 maps) and a lil 40-shot. WOW, I bet you could win some money messing with unsuspecting 600s and hopped-up cruisers hahahahaa
