35 now, was 33 when I bought it. Can't really pinpoint why I chose the CB. Was cross-shopping the Ducati Hypermotard and Kawi Versys, along with maybe the Yamaha FZ-8 and Triumph Street Triple. (I have no idea where my mind was heading with that mix). But then I saw it.
I still like the Hypermotard and Versys, and I'd like to own a bike like that someday. But the CB just made sense for what I wanted right now. It's cheap to insure, easy to ride, relatively comfortable, easygoing, and it's a gorgeous-looking Honda. I still wish I had a 6spd, but no other complaints.
Lastly, I did see a new 2014 for $8,400 bucks today. They'd probably take 8 for it, and that's only $1100 more than what I currently owe on my 2013, which I picked up for $10,200 originally.......
Hmmm...still not a huge fan of the black.
