I continue to be amazed how good my CB1100 is. I mean its really really good imo. All of this has to do with my point of reference. Going from a 2003 rigid mount Sportster to a 2003 Honda 750 Nighthawk felt like a light year leap in the right direction. The 750 will run circles around the 1200 Harley in just about every category that matters to me. Its been stone cold reliable even bought used. I would climb on it and go anywhere right this second without worry.
Enter the CB1100 I got late last year. Its a Super Nighthawk. It does everything better to the point that when I ride the 750 it almost feels archaic. The Nighthawk after all is basically 1991 technology refined and made reliable.
Things have come a long way and I am glad I am around to enjoy some of the advances. I really like my 750 and its fun to ride but Honda really did a good job on these 1100s. Both of these bikes are some of the more satisfying purchases I have ever made and that is saying a lot because I can be a pretty nasty critic at times. Whats scary is that I like them so much I have now started thinking about buying a used Honda car when the time comes. I really like my Hondas new and old.
