First post about a bike you no longer own and generally trash the bike?
Parting shots on the way out it would appear.
When I first bought my CB, I called it a second bike/B bike to my 2016 FJR. Many folks on here laughed at that, but that's their opinion, and I'm fine with that. It's a great bike for what it is... seems you were hoping it would be something else, didn't live up to those expectations, and got rid of it. If I was trying to replace my FJR with the CB as a touring bike (or an ST1300 for that matter), that would be a terrible mistake as they are completely different bikes and I'd be very disappointed. BUT... for what it is, a "put around town" kind of bike for me.... it's not bad.
Only thing I would add..... what makes an Italian bike different than a European bike? That was glaring question I had amidst your whine session.
