Seems to me, on that basis the Ferret has it right. The 2010-2017 CB1100 is the same model. However, it does give rise to the question of when a model has so evolved that it becomes different. A bigger tank and an extra gear and new suspension doesn't cut it (at least, in my opinion) when the engine and the chassis are the same. But is the RS model sufficiently different?

I have, five times:
2 K75's
2 SV650's
2 F800ST's
2 V7 Classic's
2 CB750's (both SOHC but 8 model years apart)
Anyone else?
