Honda CB1100 was not my first choice

[Guth_imp]

Honestly, I could understand how some might prefer a W800, or a SR400 over a CB1100. Yes, the CB1100 offers better performance, but in this category of motorcycles styling is a huge factor. The visual aspects of these other bikes will push all the right buttons for some people, enough to trump the performance differences, especially given how these bikes are ridden most of the time. Fortunately, the CB1100 was my first choice and still is.
