Moto Morini Corsaro

Absolutely loved this bike. Probably the best twin for a hooligan roadster ever made, and actually very comfortable to ride. It would make Super Dukes, Speed Triples and Tuonos seem a bit tame in comparison. Did a fair bit of touring on it, and would have a blast on day cruises around the mountain roads here.
As much as I love my CB, and I did make the change because I wanted something a bit less violent, I still do miss the insane and instant power deliver of this bike. The only problem with it really was the shaky financial situation of Moto Morini...

Too bad that bikes like this are rarely imported here.
That's a beauty Henrik. Has a stance that reminds me of my Triumph Tiger 1050, one of the best bikes I ever owned.

Someone closed my thread I created about getting rid of my CB  So I suppose I'll join this thread!
As mentioned before, I think the CB is absolutely beautiful, and simply smooth. As another rider stated, you will just connect with a bike, unfortunately that hasn't happened with me and the CB.
I has a vfr2010 that was a real hoot, but even at 6 foot 1, I felt like it was quite a reach to get to teh handlebars. That bike carved corners wonderfully.
In all the bikes I have had, the Grom has been the only one that has kept me. If anyone has a chance for some silly fun, grab one, slap a corbin on it, and enjoy 125mpg at WOT!

Oh man! I miss my f4i too. It was my very first bike, and Mom was not impressed when I asked to stick it in the garage!
I didn't ride it for long as I didn't enjoy the crowd it drew. Everyone was always asking if I wanted to race, especially since I was in college at the time. Dopes in their Ford Taurus' and Honda Civics.....and of course other turds on their crotch rockets as well. No thanks, I just want to ride! Smooth smooth smooth!

Your thread seems to be alive and well.

Previous and first bike was this [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/14825109@N05/22028469614/in/dateposted-public/]2012 Honda NC700X painted candy tangerine with metal flake. Was a very solid learner bike, thoroughly enjoyable.
Then went to the 2015 Progressive Motorcycle Show in Chicago and was gob-smacked upon seeing the CB1100 Dlx! Knew right then and there that someday it would be my next and last bike!
Well, that "someday" came much sooner than expected, just 2 months later, when I very impulsively traded in the one for the other! This [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/14825109@N05/17208115318/in/dateposted-public/]2014 CB1100 Dlx is a fabulous bike; haven't looked back!

Somewhat like Fritz, my first adult life bike was my 2013 NC700x, my Red Donkey. Bought it in January 2015, gave me back the 2-wheel confidence and last month traded it for my CB. NC's are very good bikes and very underrated. If I had the resources I wouldn't mind having one as my second bike.

Dont have a pic to post but traded my 2002 Harley Softtail (carbed model) with FL hard bags, for my CB.
I just prefer a standard over a cruiser.
Back in the late 70's early 80's I had a 68 Honda 305 scrambler that carried me many miles and on many adventures
so the brand has stuck.
I love the CB, but want to put an XR650L in the stable for some adventure riding.

2007 F800ST....A great-riding bike, but probably the worst-built machine I'll ever own (with terrible customer service to match).
BMW would need to come out with something truly incredible if they were to ever earn my business again.

My CB replaces my '11 V7 Classic, one of my all-time favorite bikes. Gorgeous bike, handled great, and made enough power to be really fun in the mountains, but plagued by a terrible dealership network. I couldn't justify keeping it under those conditions.

Before the Guzzi, I scratched my retro itch with a '73 RD350. Nice conversation piece but inadequate if I wanted to leave town and actually ride somewhere.

And before the RD was my '70 CB750K0. Another great conversation piece, and another disappointment on the road.

For now, the CB1100 checks all the boxes!
