I bought my CB1100 EX 2014 a month ago after having HD for like 7 years. Got used to it on my daily city routes. Today I rode my Sportster just to see the difference and then Honda. My God! what a huge difference. I thought something is wrong with HD. It doesn't turn nor brake. It shakes and makes a lot of noise. Now I'm sure I'll get rid of it.
Just sharing my experience since I'm just overwhelmed with CB. Love it.
What was your experince old vs new bike?

Hi Voitus ,Just yesterday I made a trip of 250 km with my sportster 1200 c 2003 version of the centenary, my wife and I went back very tired, maybe the warm weather, with little excursion shock, vibration, and wind in our faces, when we travel cb 1100 with the comfort is much better except for the wind, because we love our xl 1200 we will not sell it ever ..... I think that will set the spring and shock absorber will buy a nice windshield as I have done for the cb 1100 , because even as gasoline consumption not see any difference between both the bikes, with the sportster I-23 between i20 km per liter of petrol, with cb 1100 I can get up to 26 km a liter (with the one that costs the gasoline in Italy, consumption is very important), the sportster in fourteen years he never had any problems, I still have the original battery, only oil, candles engine, filters, tires, brake pads and see if gasoline ....... the honda with a lot of electronics if you behave well ......
