Hi all.
I currently ride a Honda xl1000 Varadero and I really like this bike. But I must admit I always hunger after a modern retro bike. I my area the most common modern retros are triumphs and bmw's, oh and harleys.
I really like the looks of the early 80's honda cb custom bikes like the cb 900 c or 1000 c.
And I think if I would buy a cb1100 I would try and make it look like those bikes. Higher bars, bigger seat, sissybars and if possible move the pegs a little bit forward to be more mid controls. tires with white lettering, 4 into 4 exhausts.
Have any of you done anything like this? Would it be at all possible and not make the bike look ridiculous?
If you have any pictures of a cb1100 "custom" I would like to see how it could look. Thanks.
