Actually the iteration of CB 1100 the world received in 2010 ( and that we got in 2013) was very different than the prototype shown at the 2009 Tokyo motor show and MUCH different than the designers original drawings. It didn't conjure up the image of old guys riding easy. The bike we got is what it morphed into...and seeing as how the 4 into 1 is more inline with one of Hondas supersport 900F 750F 400F I contend the dual exhaust version is a more relaxed version of the 2013.
Check out the Tokyo CB 1100F prototype pics above .... different tank, seat, exhaust, rear shocks, swing arm, rear tail light, grab rails, fork ears, turn signals, rear caliper mounting etc. maybe the frame, engine and wheels and forks are the same as ours, but I doubt it.
