Nothing terribly rare in the DC area. We have a bit of everything around here. As everywhere else, Harleys are number one, then BMWs of all stripes. I've seen three other CB 1100s "wild," though I've ridden with EarsOnWheels several times so I suppose that counts' too.
One that we have a lot of is the KLR 650. But I had two of them so maybe I am more apt to notice them.
We have a ton of sport bikes buzzing around; all makes and models. They often run in packs of 20-50 on the weekends. I hear their popularity has waned, but you wouldn't know it for what you see in the DC area. I think it is the price to power ratio. Young guys and girls can afford them and they go very fast. We lost another one in Chantilly on Friday, weaving through traffic and passing on the shoulder. A broken down car on the right shoulder ended it for him.
