I have little doubt that Honda would have sold quite a few more CB1100s by now if they could claim that it put out 100+ horsepower. (A lower price would be the other major draw.) Still, I'm plenty happy with the power deliver of my CB. So to answer the question: No. I bought my 2013 CB1100 primarily because of the looks. The yellow example strays even further away from what attracted me to the bike than the 2014 models did. I'll be sticking with what I have.
Like others here, I'd be happier with my CB1100 if it weighed less as opposed to it having more horsepower. While the CB1100 might feel light compared to a bike that weighs 700+ pounds it still feels somewhat porky compared to my Hawk GT (at a bit over 400 lbs.).
