When it rains, it pours. After 4 years of never seeing a CB11 in the wild, I attended the western rally and saw 4 of them.
During the rally, Kennyw and I saw a black '14 model go by us as we were parked on Lost Trail Pass.
Flew back to Phoenix yesterday and decided to drop by the local dealer to check out the new '17 EX. All I can say is "Wow!". I'm definitely picking up one of those when they hit the "lightly used" market.
Seeing one in a dealer doesn't really count, but on my way back home on my CB750, a CB11 passed me going west on U.S. 60. It was '13 model modded to a cafe style low bars and a single seat. It didn't look like any of the Phoenix bikes I've seen here on the forum.
So, after 4 years of not seeing a CB11 outside of the showroom, in the last few weeks I've seen six of them. Go figure!
