RE: Almost sold the CB
In 1973 I had a BMW R/75. It was my only transportation, my commuter on work days and, with some old US Army backpacks and stuffbags, my touring bike on vacations. The only mods were a Vetter fairing and Fiaam air horns. Without a headwind it would do an indicated 105 mph and regularly delivered 50+ mpg. Of all the bikes I've owned since that time the CB1100 most gives the same sense of purpose as the R/75. Capable of just about any reasonable chore that one might expect a street bike to do.
