When the CB1100 came to Europe last year I was already hooked and calculated how much it would cost to replace the wheels by spoked wheels--an additional EUR 2000, way too steep. After reading rumors in various places in the fall of 2013 about a new 2014 model I decided to wait. Also because I yet had to sell my Guzzi Breva to soften the damage...
How pleased was I when the rumors about the spokes turned into certainty.
After test riding a black 2013 model two weeks ago to see if I fit on my first "big" bike (CB250, Zephyr 550, Zephyr 750, Breva 750 so far) I was more than convinced. I ordered the 2014 EX in red with chrome meter cover and chrome front light, regular ABS.
It's probably on a container ship to Rotterdam right now. ETA end of April/first week of May. If only time wouldn't pass so slowly.
I'm like a child waiting for Christmas.
