CB1100 - what it takes to maintain?

[Tev62]

So I finished my CB1100 "effort to maintain" video and posted it up on YouTube. I thought I would do one as I had to give it a going over anyway.

Owners on this forum will already know the information it contains and I'm not trying to teach granny how to suck eggs here.

The intention was to give a prospective owner an idea of what it means to own the CB from a servicing perspective. Hopefully it comes across as positive as it is meant to be.

Hi, I watched it and left a few comments coming from South Texas, where summers kill motorcycles. I liked what it said, even if I do not agree with all of it. The tires. The reason Forum Members spend so much putting DLX wheel on the EX!

Cheers for the feedback Michael, I appreciate your comments and all great input from your perspective. It's the rain that kills motorcycles here!

Thanks for posting this video! I really enjoyed watching it.

I guess you are right about the oil change and oil filter change intervals, but I am just too anal about it and prefer to change oil and filters at the end of each riding season (after =/- 5000km). I realise this is not necessary at all but then again: on a $10,000+ bike, I don't mind to spend $75 each year for my peace of mind. Plus I find that that oil is very black when I take it out...

Luckily the air is very clean in my part of the world so I don't need to change the air coolant that often.

Awfully expensive stuff that from Honda, specially imported from the peak of Mount Fuji and transported down by the mount Fuji hopping goat.
