I've actually considered selling the 2013 (dragging my feet because I prefer red to black) to get a Goldwing. Kinda always wanted one. But I simply don't ride like I used to so it'd be buying a tool for a job I no longer have. Besides, if I'm going to spend stupid money like that I'd rather have the new Bronco.
Otherwise; they tick all the boxes (well, most of them) and I don't see anything better (other than the new Goldwing, but you know.........) on the market. Push come to shove I'd like to add a smaller lighter dual sport/adv bike to the fleet so selling the 2013 would make room for it. I've had four bikes and for my use case four is too many. A strong case could be made that 3 is too many.
Considering how little I ride now (covid has really put a crimp on longer rides - I'm avoiding almost all eating establishments (we do occacionally hit a local guy for take out). It's down to the coffee ride to a buddies and the occasional short ride. So at this rate I'll wear out and die before the CB1100 does. Shoot. Even the lowly XR650L stands a chance to out last me.
Just watch. Now I'll put both CB's on Craigslist to see which one sells first.
