I've owned about a dozen different BMW's over the years (R's, K's, F's) and currently have three in the garage next to my CB. As others have mentioned, they're different bikes for different reasons. When I'm riding the Honda, I miss the suspension, handling, and agility of the Beemers. But I feel good on the Honda. It's a more elemental bike and brings me right back to the '70's, which is why I bought it. That being said, for anything more than a 300-400 mile day, the CB stays home. I don't think you'd need to worry about quality or workmanship. The CB is a very nice bike, and as you probably know, BMW's can have their issues.
