Man, I may be the youngest. 24 now, bought the CB at 23. I worked on a few air-cooled bikes when I was in college (and hot rods in high school) and was forever sold on the appeal of fins. FAR more beautiful than anything liquid cooled. My roommate bought a 1975 CB550 when I had my TW200 and being the nice guy I am, I ended up doing a ton of work on that bike for him. Given how rock solid that bike was and how great it sounded, I knew I wanted an air-cooled 4 cylinder. Also, given how many times I had those carbs apart, I wanted EFI. As it turns out, there is one air-cooled 4 cylinder with EFI on the market. Easy pick! I don't need to go any faster on two wheels than what the CB1100 provides. I have my cages for going real fast.
Oh, also my wife loved the CB. Let's be honest, that was the real reason I got one.
