I enjoyed the torque, but didn't put a lot of miles on it. I'm glad I owned it. I think it was a bucket list kind of thing. We shall see how many miles my new 14 CB1100 gets on it in the next few years!!!
Both of mine were 1,000 miles per month.
Most folks are not aware of the Sport.

I am certain one of our members owns one, or did. Maybe the Ferret can recall. I met a guy at a trackday who had one and he was having a fantastic time on it. WSIR 2.5 mile!

Frulk has a XR1200.
When I first decided in 2015 to get a second street bike with a standard seating position I first starting looking for the XR1200 but there doesn't seem to be very many here on the east coast of Canada. In almost 3 years I have only seen one for sale in late 2015 and it sold within hours - I missed it.
So in March 2017 (I missed most of the 2016 season due to my wife being in cancer treatment) I went to the HD/Honda/KTM to try the 2017 Sportster Roadster but the ergos were terrible for me. I then tried a KTM Super Duke but didn't care for it.
In the back they had near mint 1978 CB750 Super Sport, I tried it and liked it but the shop owner wouldn't sell it as he wanted for a display bike.
I then remembered how much I liked 2014 CB1100 and without knowing how rare they are in Canada I looked for a used one. By some miracle stroke of luck a dealer had one so I grabbed it right away sight unseen.
When I found this forum I found out how lucky I had really been and a forum member had been the previous owner my bike so I even know the history of it and how it was treated (it had 4500km on it).
