The next time I had the opportunity to take the shortest way home I again went the other way. 5 times in all I could have turned and expedited my trip home and each time I thought "I'm not ready to go home yet, keep going"
This is honestly the best bike I have ever owned and I have owned a bunch. Love riding it, love looking at it. Love everything about it but that dang left handlebar switch ...had to apologize today to a nice older lady when I pulled in behind her into a parking lot and (again) hit my horn instead of cancelling my turn signal
Close to perfection for me.
Oh and I take it back about not caring about the 6th gear in the trans. It has turned out to be sooo sweet. Necessary? NO! Sweet? YES!
I need to test ride the new cb11 but unlikely will switch. the '13 has perfect color combo for me most beautiful bike I have, I like the half black engine but miss the 6th gear but glad I have 30 lbs less to haul around. You say the MPG is about the same? how about the handling?
