I like the newer '17 CB1100 tank. Or, I like the original 1969 tank. I could be happy on the '13 CB11 or the RS. The shocks are nicer on the RS. It looks sporty which some people will like more. The '13 CB1100 IS "retro" but the tank is 80s retro and that was neither a good design period for cars nor motorcycles in a kind of general sense, to me. If I had the means, and the RS spoke to me emotionally, I would trade for it. I'm not going to ride either like a sport bike and if I want to, I can just buy the Z900. It's all about emotions. Or we could just buy a Ural and call it a day. My original liking of the CB1100 was sitting on it, it felt right. Everything felt in the right place. It has a moto purity, let's say. I'd be happy on the Kaw RS and the CB RS as well. Seat of the pants? I liked the RS when I saw the photos. "Wow, cool."
