CB1100 EX from Belgium - the Belgian build

Thx

And aint that a fact.
When I returned I ""cleaned"" her up and removed a little stone stuck between the right header and heatshield.

I did give the bike a spanking and thus the fuel consumption was very high.
8.2L/100km.
That like 34mpg... Oeps.

Coming from a big scooter such as a Burgman 650, I did have to adjust at the whole clutch thing, but as I rode, I felt getting more and more familiar with it.

The way to handle all the weight is about the same since that scooter weighs about 19 MORE than the CB.
So weight wise, no unpleasant surprises at all.

But again the clutch made it a different experience all together.
Nothing beats a scooter in super crowed stop and go city traffic of course.
Unless its an automatic like with the FJR or the DCT Honda boxes.
But I will get better with the clutch and I will master it more effciently.
Luckily for my primary area of driving (much city), that clutch is easy to handle and light.
I have no experience with clutches exept for the big Cruiser and the clutch is day and night difference in easiness.
From driving school I learned on an old CB500, but have no real recollection.

Looking forward to my next ride wich is in...a few minutes.
