My review of the CB1100 (2018 EX)

[the Ferret]

tod..my problem with guys like Dave Moss et al is they are all recommending to set up a taut bike for racing/aggressive riding whereas a lot of people just want to set up their bike so it is comfortable and cushy while riding. Especially the guys in the "normal CB age group" lol. Just click on his website..do you see any pleasure riders in the pics? No. He is sitting on a race bike, the pics are all of guys riding aggressively, the upcoming events are all track related. You set up a bike like that for the pleasure ride on the street and it will be harsh and unforgiving. Great suggestions for set up for the ricky racers, not so much for the pleasure rider...and try as much as you want to argue the set up should be the same, no they shouldn't. At 70, I don't ride like I was 30 anymore, and my bike requires to be set up differently than it did back then. Of course this is just my opinion and I'm certainly no expert.
