I only have about 100 miles on my new CB1100. I hadn't considered buying a bike this fall when I got back from spending six months fly fishing in Ak. I was at home in PA during 2016 before I left for Ak in July and was tempted to buy a used big twin. I've been riding since the 60s, my first ride was on a buddies Triumph and I was hooked. I've never owned two running bikes at the same time but I've run a 350 four, driven cross-country on a water buffallo I bought in Edmonton, got a deal on a 1100 Katana and sold my Sportster Sport a couple 0f years ago. I read that story about 10,000 miles on a CB1100 and was intrigued. I think I'm going to enjoy this bike. I bought it right after a test drive, and it's going to be a big part of my pre- Ak fishing trip life in Pa. It is a sweet machine that really exemplifies what a motorcycle is to me. I've met the nicest people on a Honda and this old fart is going to enjoy the snot out of my bike. I don't need to ride at 150+ mph. I have the T-shirt even if it doesn't fit anymore.
