Nice, I'm no longer the youngest kiddo on here ha! This bike surpasses my needs and is simply an awesome all around bike.

part of the reason I bought a new bike, my brother said " I should buy before I get to old to ride ".

I'm 29. I had always ridden the average yamaha/suzuki/honda sport bike until I moved to Kenya last year and bought a little yamaha 125. it was so slow (I think it had 10bhp) and topped out around 95-100 km/hr but I had more fun on that thing than I had ever had on other bikes. I like the feeling of the wind and the seating position. took it all around the country and from then on decided that when I returned to the states, I wanted the same riding experience, just on a bike with more power. the cb11 is the only modern thing out there that comes close for me. I considered a bonneville or one of those moto guzzi v7 bikes, but the Honda just looked too bad ass to resist. put a deposit down on one during a trip bal to the states and picked it up two days after I got back.

45. Got it because the CBs were the bikes all the "cool guys" had when I was a youngster in the 70s. I actually painted a "CB" label on the minibike my grandfather built for me when I was 10, (genuine Briggs & Stratton Junkyard vintage). By the time I got to buying age for a real "muscle bike" (and could afford one) all the manufacturers were busily slapping huge chunks of ugly plastic all over their products. This motorcycle is like a boyhood dream reincarnated for me. 1,200 miles and absolutely loving it. It'll be a member of the family for a long time to come.

Gentlemen,

I got my motorcycle drivers license on my 16th birthday but I actually started riding on the street at age 13 and never got caught. I rode to work every day in the summer and rode to school. I'm 57 today and I've never been without at least one motorcycle in all those years.
