To be honest, I'm a little surprised that Honda UK continue to list the CB1100.
According to the government registrations, there were only 35 2019 EX's registered in 2019 and slightly fewer RS's. In comparison with (for example) the Bonneville T100/T120 these numbers are tiny and probably equal about 5% of Triumph volumes - and that's excluding all the Thruxton/Scrambler Bonneville derivatives...
Having said that according to some British motorcycling press sources (and apologies if this has been seen/discussed in the past), a new CB1100 may be on the horizon.
This report (from July 2019) discusses the potential introduction of a Euro 5 compliant version...

https://www.bennetts.co.uk/bikesocial/ne...nda-cb1100 Apologies. Bit clunky this post of mine. Sausage fingers. What I was trying to write is that I've just bought a new 2019 EX because (it seems to me) that the days of the CB are nearly over (in the UK anyway). With Euro 5 & 6 looming fast. There's a fair few on the used market here but the pool of new ones seems to be getting smaller all the time. The Honda dealer I'm using says there are no more coming. I had an itch to try out Moto Guzzi, so over the last 6 months or so I have been running around on them. Nice bikes but my heart/head is with the CB so decided to get one while I still can. The Guzzi has been traded.
