The CB is a very easy bike to ride. The generous low end torque and easy throttle response make it a pleasure. Other than actual valve adjustments (very few forum members bikes needed adjustment) which are costly, all other routine maintenance procedures are simple and easily handled at home. The brakes are superb, as good as many sport bikes. The CB has no handling vices, very steady and predictable in the twisties with good cornering clearance. Other than being a stunning bike to look at, it's not the best in any single category of performance but does everything well.
