If you have ridden a GoldWing, you will not find the CB1100 as comfortable as a Gold Wing. I've had the 1200, the 1500 and the 1800cc GoldWings. The 1800 is really well balanced and once underway feels like a 300 lb bike. It also has reverse for parking maneuvers. So it really isn't a handful. You can pick up a nice used one for about what you'll spend on a CB1100. It has plenty of storage space and they run practically forever with the proper maintenance. For touring it's the only way to go.
The CB1100 is an excellent motorcycle, if you're a young man you could tour on it, but the GoldWing would be much better. 1000 mile days on a GoldWing are easily possible, on a CB1100 not so much.
