I have a bunch of bikes. Love them all. I guess I am as much of a collector as I am a rider. Love Honda's and Triumph motorcycles. I have a 2010 blue and white Bonny SE with arrow exhausts and some suspension up grades. The BC1100 if I can accomplish a few modifications will be right up at the top of the list. I'd like to have a gunfighter style seat which would lower the riding position just at little. Smallish fairing wind screen to block a little of the wind. I did install a fly screen which I had laying around and it went right on and helped some. Needs to be a little larger. Color matched side panels and maybe a slightly different style mirror (I think the factories stick up a little too tall)
Honda got this bike pretty much right. Also have a Triumph America which is interesting because it has the same engine as the Bonny but is an entirely different bike. Honda needs to continue to look back. One of my favorites is the Magna from 1996 to 2003. Love to see a "modern" version of that motorcycle. Wish Honda would have but a six gear in the CB1100. Like all Honda's it could really benefit with a little taller gearing (In my opinion)
I might add that Thruxton is one of the most beautiful bikes I've ever seen. WOW I can't ride the Thruxton because of the seat to bar relationship but man that is a super pretty bike. I'd put that in my living room it's that pretty.
