100,000 KM on 2013 CB1100
#1



My CB came to me with 3200 miles on it in February 2016. Last week while out on a ride with fellow member Gurgus Bee I rolled 100000KM. Considering how short the Canadian ride season can be, and the fact that I'm a family man with two young boys this was quite the feat. I'm still quite happy with the CB although we could both stand to lose a few lbs. The CB's mini-me the 1981 CB125S has me valuing weight much more these days.

Congrats Bigsheep, 100K kms is a nice number, and it might be the highest kms CB ridden in Canada.
Are you planning to replace it with another, younger CB1100 or keep on riding?

This CB is permanent collection, it's worth more to me than I could possibly get for it with 100K on it. My last ride was around 200 Km and I will need to replace the seat or get it reupholstered.

You've got many more rides ahead of you. 100k km is maybe half what I reckon the cb1100 can do comfortably. At 200k just give it a bit of an overhaul and keep on riding!

How many valve clearance inspections and/or shim swaps did you have to do in that time out of interest?
