I don't understand

ACTUALLY, it's really refreshing hearing this, because i thought the exact same thing the first time I took my black '14 home. with the exception of the rear fender, it looks strikingly like an 80's CB750SS or CB1100F. I'm actually in the process of changing my rear fender out for a small fairing/cowl that looks a bit more like the F's!

you can force the bike to look like the 70's models if you spend 4-5k on a K10 conversion kit from Whitehouse, but for my money, bringing out the 80's is definitely the way to go.

Definitely my favorite black CB1100 I have seen. You’ve done an excellent job with it. I think the black 1100s look best with this 80s flair and the red 1100s look best in with early/mid 70s accents.
