Bonneville vs CB1100

[Short Timer_imp]

Best thing you can do, next to gathering opinions, is ride them back to back if possible. I just did that - always did want to own a Bonnie. Pricing is similar, specifications are all pretty close once you get past the obvious things like engine, trans, etc. and both are solidly good looking retro bikes. Both head-turners in their own right.

Up until my test rides - just hours apart, it was honestly a flip of the coin for me.

After the rides, it was the CB by a wide margin.

But get what lights your fire. There's no "wrong" answer!
