The DLX is road worthy now, but not pretty enough to share pixs just yet. I will post both to this thread then even if it is a little old. I expect to have it completely restored with too many new parts, nuts and bolts to mention by Christmas. I just could not leave her in the rusted/faded state I found her in. I got the lead from the Forum, and having been the 3rd DLX I tried to buy, I bought her maybe a bit too hastily, but glad I did. Soon she will be worthy of a keeper, and had only 201 miles when I bought her!
Yes the CB1100 is worth buying 2 or 3!
Agreed! I feel silly aiming at another one, but I like the design a lot, and I don't know how long they'll still be available.
I read that the president of Honda rides a CB1100... A DLX in Pearl White!
The bike is so well mannered yet fun to ride. I like the fact that it's whisper quiet too. I can ride through neighborhoods with parks full of dogs and little kids and I get smiling people waving at me... Not my experience riding louder bikes!
Hoping that Honda decides to bring the CB1100 to the USA for their final edition.
The other bike that sparks my interest is the Kawasaki z900r. Similar look and design, but slightly more modern. Unfortunately, following them on the Kawasaki forums, they don't seem as reliable as the CB1100.
If the CB1000 Neo Cafe gets released in white or sky-blue, I might have to get one!
