Who rides the CB 1100?

[Todd-badebiker_imp]

Hi everyone, I am a 50 year old Quality Control Inspector for the Eagle P3 project in Denver. I am also a retired sailor with 23 years of service. I build model cars, like wood working, doing my own maintenance(cause I'm cheap), and riding as much as possible.

My m/c ownership resume is pretty tame compared to many of you. I had a Bonanza mini-bike, '75 CB125S, '74 CL360, my awesome 1983 Nighthawk CB650SC wrecked in 1990, 2006 got a '82 CM450Custom, a '06 Shadow Spirit 750, '08 CRF230L, '00 XR100(super fun), a new CB1100 some time during the 1st week of August. So for now I'll have to enjoy all y'all's CB stories.

I almost forgot my beloved 1985 ATC350x...sigh...I had to sell it to my brother, unfortunately some low life stole it out of the back of his pickup at a 7/11 type of store(if I found him it would not be pretty!). This particular machine made me a Honda owner for life, it survived me not tightening the oil plug all the way losing 80% of the oil about 15 miles and 2 7000 foot summits from home, trying a 12% mix of nitromethane nearly seizing the piston(or so I thought). Then after a 6 months on my carrier finding the cylinder's factory cross-hatch marks in perfect condition when installing a high compression piston. I thought if a sailor can't kill a Honda then it has to be the best built machine ever! Thus Honda FOREVER!!!
