I still like them both. The 17 EX is much more classic. That's THE point I think.CB1100RS has same twin-shock suspension as the EX. No upside down forks, conventional but with Showa Dual Bending Valve, same as the EX. Shocks have reservoirs and are gold. Might have stiffer damping rates and different spring rates, though. No monoshock. The weight difference is only about 11 pounds, probably not noticeable.
Power is the same on both EX and RS.
Or were you thinking about the Kawasaki? The posts refer to the CB1100RS, that could be the confusion.
