honest opinions: lowering a CB1100

[misterprofessionality]

I went up to my local shop today and checked out the 500 Rebel. It indeed has a very low seat height, and is very narrow in the waist. I think it has the same motor as the CB 500X which is a smooth, eagar and willing motor, great on the backroads and adequate on the freeway. She could do worse.

That motor is stellar, i agree. i had a CBR500R which is the exact same motor and it was a joy, but she's trying to branch out to non-cruiser alternatives, which is where the whole "lowering" discussion came from to start with. we're trying to catalog as many non cruiser alternatives as possible
