CB1100 collision - was it you?

No fair, Todd, we can’t get the H’ness here in the U.S. I think it’s really cool and I know my wife would love it. I’d need a bike that can cruise above 70mph easily, so thinking a bit bigger.

And I’ve never engaged in a group ride. I don’t see it being very enjoyable from many aspects. But then again, I don’t get along with most people in general.

Someone said that a 500cc version is in the works, apparently Honda left clues on the bike itself by creating attachments for a radiator/oil-cooler etc. But let's wait and see.

As for the group rides, I have nothing against them, accidents happen solo or in a group because that's what they are - accidents. I often ride with a bunch of people and it's much safer in that setup to ride in formation with clear rules of engagement, a road captain, a sweep, marshalls if necessary. When everyone rides how they please things get unpredictable and accidents are more likely. I'm a decent RC and I take my time to do a thorough briefing and make sure everyone understands what to do and not to do when in formation, and when someone gets a bit too fly, we are all quick and efficient in putting them in their place.

It's always better to ride with a group of people we know, rather than the ones we don't know, it takes a lot of unknowns out of the equation. But it is often that someone new would come along.
Covid imposed 6 people max rule on us, so I have to say it got much easier as I always ride with 6 people I know they know what they are doing. But just a short two years ago 20+ people were a regular weekend ride.

Does it all exclude a possibility of an accident? Definitely not, but it in my experience it reduces the risk of one.
