Darn - The CB1100 is very heavy

That's my impression too. When I first bought the bike it seemed light compared to my Harley Electra-Glide and BMW K1600. I'm talking about sitting on them at a stop or pushing them around the garage. No surprise there, but I have to say the Beemer is the lightest handling of the lot. Much of the weight is low due the the forward tilt of the 6-banger and steering geometry plays a big role there. The CB is small and rather spare compared to the others - something I really like about it. It's buck naked! Tongue
