engine heat and lean angles

[davidsargee_imp]

Hi Fred, I couldn't compare it to the Suzuki, but my CB1100 doesn't seem to generate a lot of heat. The only time I feel heat from the mill is when stopped a lot in traffic. The bike corners well considering what it is, the stock suspension is a little soft, but overall it handles quite well. It's not a sport bike, and the lean angle is not that of a sport bike, but it's much better than the average cruiser.

Some of the other forum members have fitted their CB's with aftermarket shocks, (Ohlins), and report good results, I'm mostly a casual rider, so I'm sticking with stock suspension until it's time to replace the shocks.

Cheers
