Let's see your CB1100 out on the road!

On Friday I went for a ride up Mounts Nebo and Glorious.


This Triumph T120 parked next to me and I took a photo of both bikes. The bloke who owned it came over as I was getting ready to leave and I said his bike looked good and asked was he enjoying it. He wasn't sure as he'd only done about 400 kms on it. No wonder it looked like it hadn't been out of the showroom long.

He then asked how old my bike was. Fair question, really, as it's looking a bit old these days. When I said it was 2011 he looked at me like I was nuts. I explained it was a new take on older beauty and we smiled the mutual smiles of retro bike owners.

Then on Sunday I went for another ride up Mounts Nebo and Glorious with GrahamT. We went further this time—down the other side and back up again. His bike also looks like it was not long ago in the showroom.
