My first reaction to the new CB1100

[the Ferret]

CA what is so sad in your story was that one line " After all I was in the motorcycle bizz for 25 years and now it was my time to ride a little". ( and I completely understand what you were saying having been in the bizz for 17 years myself). People don't understand what a drain it is for people who love motorcycles to work in the business. They work with motorcycles everyday, yet rarely get to enjoy them. Hours are long, pay is short and you are stuck working while everyone else is out riding. It really is true, if you love something don't make a business out of it ..or don't work at the hobby you love.

I so hope you get to enjoy your CB 1100 for a long long time. You deserve it.
