I've always contended that the CB1100 is as small as a 1975 eras 750 but I am relying on a 45 year memory. When you climb on your KZ900 and then climb on the CB1100 does it feel that way to you?The Honda and the Kawasaki have almost identical weight,wheelbase,horsepower and seat height. The only thing that separates them is the induction and exhaust note and a little more vibes on the Kawa.(and having to turn off the fuel tap).Of course the Kawasaki will always hold a lot more memories. I won't be around to say that about the Honda in 2054.
Yep. When oldtimers ask me about the CB1100's power, weight, etc... I tell 'em that it's pretty much the same as the late 70s/early 80s liter bikes that the CB emulates. When you look up the specs for the old CB/KZ/GS/XS bikes, they look pretty familiar
