You nicely highlighted an exceptional point about our CB1100 that is often overlooked - the transmission. The transmission in the CB is an amazing gem, possibly one of the best motorcycle transmissions out there. Smooth, quiet, reliable, and it shifts almost intuitively in the full range of conditions - cold mornings, long tours, or a full day at the track with temps in the 90s (Fahrenheit). I love it (if you couldn't tell) and I try never to take it for granted.
