I own both, and there's no question that the CB is the finer more refined machine, but the Bonneville is a nice machine too and I enjoy riding it.
I bought it primarily for the retro look and the fact that back in the day I wasn't into motorcycles while the Bonneville was in its heyday. The T100 has its limitations, and I know that, so accept it for what it is and just enjoy the ride.
My modest "fleet" covers all my ambitions for speed and comfort so it comes down to what I want from a bike on any given day. I make my choice and off I go.
I'm not one who buys a bike and then wishes it was something else. I'm not into trying to turn a sows ear into a silk purse. I make a few mods; add a few farkles and I'm done.
Ride; enjoy; repeat.
