The sound when all 4 valves open is truly great. I put 90 miles on it today, and I have to admit I'm feeling my hips a bit but it was the best 90 miles I've done in a long time 
Sorry for hijacking my own thread, but I might just have to make room in the garage for two bikes in the next year or two One way or another, I'm sure that a CB1100 will find its way into my house...
I've only ridden CB1100 once, so take my opinion with a grain of salt, but VFR seems to have more urgency at the top, and that sound is something truly different. CB has good, even power throughout the range. I bet straight-line numbers are probably pretty close.
Neither bike can touch the 150HP+ supersports of course, but then it's not really the point here.

I've never ridden one. From what I've read the VFR has always had great reviews and the V4 seems like a nice engine. I've only had I4s and singles.
