I’ve got this. Having owned what was the first ThruxR in NJ for 2 1/2 years now, I can weigh in.
Simply, It’s my favorite bike. I’m not implying it will be yours, but all around, in a fleet of 12 bikes, it’s the one I cherish most. It’s a modern sporty road bike with retro flair, top drawer components, and a timeless style. It’s comfortable enough for an all day ride, ballsy enough for spirited twisties, and has buckets of that undefinable ‘character.’
It has been bulletproof, save for a recent recall for an ECU issue regarding stalling (mine is not so afflicted) and a spongy feel to the lever on the Brembo front brakes.
I’ve probably not put 500 miles on the CB this year, and with the Thrux and a Bonnie I use for local errands and the beach, I’ll prob use the CB as a trade in on my 60th birthday present...tbd. Happy to fill you in via PM on any specific Thrux questions.![[Image: b2a46c9fcf7bebccdbd969baa2d542ff.jpg]](https://cb1100forum.net/forum/uploads/imp/201802/b2a46c9fcf7bebccdbd969baa2d542ff.jpg)
