Phew, that was a long one 
I have had zero problems with my CB and love it more every year.
That said, next summer I will have owned it four years and I'll admit that some of the "thrill" has worn off and it has become, to some extent, just another one of the fleet.
After I bought my Triumph Bonneville I joined a Triumph forum and like most new owners, was over the moon about my new purchase.
I still belong to that forum, but as the years passed we had solved all problems and talked the bike to death resulting in less participation on the forum.
I think some of that is happening here now. There reaches point when you run out of topics to talk about except when new owners join and motivate the members into helping with any questions.
I see the forum slowing to some extent, but I think it will be around for quite a while. I would be very disappointed if it closes because I feel a kinship with many members and consider them friends.
