personally I don't find those accessories appropriate for this bike and I never liked them on all the old bikes either.
I find the CB11 to be a sporty standard with plenty of pep for what it is and not something I would turn into a couch potato bike.
It certainly has more power and performance than any of the bikes it is supposed to represent as a retro.
That fact alone makes it a win, never-mind the reliability and build quality that far exceeds the old bikes.
I'm not sure what you are looking for but I don't think the CB is it. Maybe an older shadow is your calling?
But since cruisers are basically all copies of Harleys I doubt you'll find an I4 version of one.
Like ferret, I find the CB1100 much better than I expected. I am very happily impressed by it.
I know how you feel, I've bought a few bikes that turned out wrong for me. The best thing to do is to sell it and find something that suits you better.
I had a Ducati Panigale for 4 days!
LMAO! 4 days!! Awsome! Kinda like a Hollywood Couple's marriage...
