One thing to try would be handlebar risers. They will allow you to not lean forward. I'm still waiting to address the red vs. black issue so I can get my CB but I already have a set of Rox 2" risers ready to go (part# 1R-P2SSN). My friend has a set on his CB1100 and he thinks they're great. They make a bigger difference than you'd think. I think the bike looks better too.
Did these risers do ok with stock lines/cables?

Yes, they work fine but there is no extra length. Be sure to loosen everything including the throttle assembly. Then cut all zip ties. Zip tie everything back after you've tightened it all back up. Whoever designed these Rox risers is really clever.
BTW, I also have a set on my Suzuki TU250X. The reason they are so good is because they are universal and fit practically everything, as long as you get the right size for your handlebars. The CB1100 and the Suzuki TU250X are both 7/8".
