The point is always made whilst the CB1100 is parked!
"Man, how long'd it take you to restore it?"
"What year is that, dude?"
Although I will admit I am pretty sure I have gotten a number of looks during the years I had my Gen 1 '13 Standard while I was actually riding it. I believe it made the same point as my Street Cup does; retro rules.
All absurdity aside, the CB1100 is just a bit more than the sum of its parts and does in fact reward the solo rider, the guy who goes his own way, in a most excellent fashion.
Cannot wait to hear your review of the Grom.
