CB1100 Type II Conversion

[Guth_imp]

I finally got around to swapping out the original Type I handlebars on my CB1100 for the Type II bars to go along with my lower OEM Japan market seat. Sadly, I didn't even get in a ride after finishing the swap. Fortunately this evening I managed to roll the bike out of the garage, go for a quick spin and snap a couple of pics. My first impressions (and that's all that I have at this point) are positive. I can certainly feel a difference, but it's not too dramatic. The seat feels firm, yet comfy enough but I won't really know how well it does on a longer ride until sometime later on. The e-cushion material definitely feels a bit denser than the foam in the stock seat. Being able to firmly flat foot the bike is really nice. The bars are nice too, being a bit narrower and lower than the Type I bars. I probably felt more difference from the handlebar swap than I did from the seat swap. I'll let the photos tell the rest of the story. Good stuff!
