Yes, Ferret, thanks for that reminder. I looked over Chip's post again, and now realize I might have to replicate most of that process even though I'll be using a stock Type II bar meant for the CB1100. I haven't yet received the bar or the service manual...they are still in transit...merely planning ahead right now...deciding whether I will do the work or let a Honda dealer handle it. I am good with bicycles, but the CB1100 is my first motorcycle. The bar swap now seems like a royal pain in the butt, so I've reached out to Chip via e-mail in the hope that he will discuss the matter with me as I'm not sure why he undertook some of the steps listed in his post. I suppose the service manual might also clarify the process. If I resolve my uncertainties and actually do the work myself, I'll post back on the forum so others can benefit.
