Me too. Every set of pipes I might want wants me to loose my center stand and that ain't happening.

Shave all the weight you want off this bike, add the best pipe you can buy. have it reflashed and power commandered, skip breakfast, don't wear any underwear and you still won't outrun a decent rider on a 600 supersport. That's all I'm saying.

I think underwear is way off the subject. Besides, we are not talking about being faster than a 600 supersuport but the fastest 1100 in reality and the lightest CB1100 is a great place to start, add better pipes, power command this and that, lose the doughnut and viola, I speak French all of the sudden and you have a faster CB1100.
