Will '13 accessories fit on the '14?

[Cormanus]

The last model imported to Australia was in 2011. I've read somewhere that Honda is not bringing either the standard or EX or Deluxe models to Australia in 2014. Those of us who have one of the 2010 or 2011 models got lucky.

What the heck is Honda thinking? It doesn't make sense!

It makes some sense. The CB11 didn't really take off in Australia the way they hoped. From what I heard, last year some Australian dealers still had unsold 2011 models on the floor.

Actually, that's the only thing it could be. After all, Honda is in business to sell bikes. I can't imagine why they would sell good elsewhere but not in Australia. It's really a bummer for guy's like Cormanus who are going to want a new one sooner or later. Too bad it's not possible to buy one elsewhere and have it shipped. But, of course that's illegal.

Kind of you. Actually, I rather hope I can make this one last. If I look after it and ride it carefully and contain my natural enthusiasm for the new, I might make it.

Reply from Staintune to Jerry Finley of Prirates Lair who has best prices of Staintune exhausts:

Hi Jerry,
I am very sorry to say that Honda Australia will not be selling the CB1100F here this year or next.
We will not be able to get a bike to make the Deluxe twin pipes on.
This is very disappointing for us as the CB1100 has been one of our top sellers.
Kind Regards

2014 Deluxe owners wishing to have a better sounding exhaust and a boost in performance will need to find another slip-on manufacturer.

IMHO Staintune offers the best built, best looking slip-on that preserves the overall look of the bike and produces an excellent exhaust note. This is disappointing, especially for everyone in Australia.

It's not only sad for us in Australia, but also for Staintune (because they're losing a market and export opportunity) and the rest of the world (because you won't be able to buy their product).
