The CB1100 bug bit me bad. I had a CB750 back in the early '70s and a CB750F back in '76 so this think as literally designed with me in mind.
I had a BMW K75 and a Yamaha Road Star 1600 (that I loved) and i sold the Beemer and traded the R* for the CB.
I am thrilled with the CB and I have 20-some miles of I-81 in WV/VA to commute to work and it deals with the trucks better than the R* did. Though, to be honest, I typically take "Rt 11" instead and just enjoy the ride so much more.
I am already looking for another R* to build as I want but I do NOT regret trading for my CB. I can get two bikes past the wife but more and she starts to complain.
