Is the CB1100 no more?

[Richard_imp]

I love the look of Guzzis ( and BMWs). Just dont like riding either of them. I test rode a Breva 750 ( where's the power or the brakes)? Rode a Griso , plenty of power, none of it below 4k rpms. Same issue I have with BMWs. They are revvers and not luggers. I love my CB and my FJR (and my ST 1300 before that) because of their ability to run cleanly at 2500-3500 rpms the rpm range I prefer to ride in.

I’d have to argue the case for BMW being capable of producing luggers. My R1250GS is very happy at low revs and has so much torque it pulls like a steam train without any need to rev it out.

However, I do agree with you that torquey engines (luggers) are nice to ride, which is also why I enjoy the CB.
