Perfect Christmas Day...

[quietguy_imp]

I took my first "real" ride on my new CB1100 this morning. Rolled her out at 10:00 am and geared up, then off I went heading east on a great back road.


Stopped at 56 miles and filled the tank. The gauge was showing 1/2 tank remaining. It took 1.9 gallons (capacity 3.9) and calculated mpg was 30.9 - due mostly to my poor handling of the controls.


Impressions:


Smooth, quiet, torque into the stratosphere, and Comfortable. The ride is near Lincoln Towncar quality... bumps and road imperfections have almost zero affect.


Handling: Neutral, balanced and easy to control. No bad habits.


3 hours and 100 miles later, home again. Rolled her into the shed, got her on the centerstand, wiped it all down, and came in the house with a "perma-smile" pasted on my ugly mug.


Overall, an incredible Xmas day for this old fella.


I hope all of you are having a great day.
