ish,
For sure, CB1100 sightings are rare. I've see one on PCH in Huntington Beach a couple of times, and another forum member came to Vintage Bike OC meet once.
I've tried to get a CB1100 group ride together, but have not yet been successful.
Best way to hook up with me is to meet at the monthly [url=http://vintagebikeoc.com/home/index.php]Vintage Bike OC meet, every second Sunday of the month. I usually ride my CB1100 there.
TINK
Wrenching on motorcycles has always been my first love.
Once upon a time, (a loooong time ago) in my youth, I tried to make a living as a motorcycle mechanic... I almost starved.
But now that I'm retired from corporate life, and receiving a monthly pension check
, I can afford to follow my passion to repair and restore old motorcycles.
So for now my beloved CB1100 sleeps in the back of the garage awaiting the day when I have time to ride her.

PS
My BMW R100S too is sitting dormant waiting for me to install new steering head bearings.
The irony; no time to work on my own bikes.

I am from your neck of the woods TINK.
Let me know when you feel like going for a ride.
I don't see too many CB1100 in our area no matter how populated we are here in socal

It's been almost two month since I last rode my beloved CB1100. The spiders have moved in, and are knitting a web around her.
I've taken on a "PART TIME"job at [url=http://www.triumphclassicmotorcycles.com/]Triumph Classic Motorcycles in Costa Mesa, CA.
I'm working 40 hours a week (part time!?) at the shop wrenching on old Triumph's, BSA's, Norton's, and even a Matchless. [url=http://photosbytink.com/tcm_test/]http://photosbytink.com/tcm_test/
