Saw the bike when they brought it to the states like 3 years ago and really wanted one but, couldn't justify spending the money on it at the time.
Of course, Performance Honda sold me a lemon in the CB500F and then refused to replace it (even though it was defective when I rode it off the lot) and even Honda themselves wanted to take the bike for an unspecified amount of time (the dealer already had it for 2 weeks and I had it for about 2 days after buying it) and leave me with nothing to ride. When we couldn't reach an amicable solution, Honda decided to lie about their findings and told me that they never said there was anything wrong with the bike (I had a motorcycle cop ride it and all my friends, the transmission was jacked up)...
Anyway, that experience turned me off Honda for a few years and I was riding a Ninja when they started to clearance the CB1100s in my area. I decided I wanted one and got to test drive my brothers so, I gave it a shot and so far, the bike is decent but, if there's no other CB1100s on the market when it is time to replace it, I won't be buying another Honda.
Oh and I'm 45 and an IT Professional.
