How good is the CB 1100?

In June I moved to Edmonton, Alberta from the U.S. I had decided I was going to get a 2014 CB1100 after I got to Canada because my trailer was full with a 1972 CB350K and a 1976 CB750. When I walked into the local Honda bike dealer and the salesman looked at me like I was a bit off when I told him I wanted to buy a CB1100. According to him, there were only 60 imported into the country this year. That was a big disappointment, so I bought one in Minnesota, where I'm from. Just got back to Edmonton on it this week. I really like the 6th gear. I traveled about 1350 miles in 3 days and averaged 47 mpg. Under 4k rpm at 80 mph. The seat wasn't great for that long of a trip, but I don't know that any seat would be. Really happy with this machine so far.

p.s. I'm new here, hi.

Hi Glackie. Thanks for the trip report, and welcome.
