Before doing anything, I would educate myself about this task, prior $tarting. Google is your friend.
You may start here at no cost to you at all:

Good luck

you're both quite right. it was a concern of mine too, but then i discovered that she can apparently handle an indian scout with very little issue, which has just as much weight as the CB1100. obviously, it's distributed differently, but i had her stand up my CB using blocks under her feet (lol) to check the height and see just how many inches she would need. with a 2.5" block under her feet, she can stand up the CB no problem, and even reports that it feels comfortably balanced. on the surface, it seems (really surprisingly) that the weight is not such an issue. i wouldn't have believed it if i didn't see it for myself, but that's what i get for understimating her.
