Superbrace

[NightRider_imp]

I suggest that Honda did not produce a CB1100 that has a defect requiring bracing but instead there is an alignment issue on a certain percentage of bikes that need correction at the Dealer rather than something added to mask the problem. So, if you have a feathering issue take it to the dealer first and see what the issue really is. - Art

The Bracing isnt made for defects. It beefs up the front end. A Steering dampener wouldnt be bad either. It controls or in better words buffers wheel hop.

That is the theory, that being the CB1100 somehow is lacking here in design, somehow needs "beefing up" as if Honda shorted us or something (the idea!) and because of this it needs this brace or it suffers wheel hop or flexes too much to ride smoothly or is feathering the front tire or something else perhaps depending on the owner and also that a bike that is not a sport bike somehow needs more steering dampening over and above what this modern motorcycle already provides.

My statement stands on those points also. If you review the semi-positive posts about this modification, it seems there is a need to correct some issue, and that issue seems to vary depending on the purchaser, much like snake oil in days gone by.
