I am so happy with my DLX
and I will probably never buy another large bike, so whether Honda brings out a 2015 CB1100 is not a big concern for me. As has been said, we don't know exactly how many CB's there are unsold worldwide; there might be enough left-overs to satisfy every buyers need for 2015.
Honda is funny how they do business with their motorcycles. If you look back, there are several models that were only here in the "states" for a year or two (TLR200, Transalp, etc). But there are some bikes that "go on forever" (XR650L). I don't know Honda's reasoning on that issue. But, they are a business and the goal of business is to make money.
I absolutely LOVE my CB and would like the line to continue. Possibly one or two smaller model CB's (CB300 or CB650) to satisfy the needs of smaller, younger riders. Then they can "graduate" to the 1100. I see a resurgence of the Retro/UJM bikes because they are so useful and "universal" in our specialized world. Yamaha has a nice SR400 UJM that I love to look at and sit on everytime I'm in a Yamaha shop.
