How many times.....Have you said " I love this bike" in your helmet? Happens to me all the time and I found myself saying it again last night.
Had just come down a small hill with a left, right, left, right turn sequence then a short mostly straight uphill with a 90 degree left hander at the top. As I leaned it over for the 90 left hander and let the torque pull me out as I shifted 3 rd to 4 th and then 4 th to 5 th to accelerate down the long straight that followed, it just came out of my mouth. Totally involuntary, and absolutely true.
What a great motorcycle.

Had that sentiment while riding the Blue Ridge Parkway this year. I finally have a bike that conveys the same joy I got from my old BMW R75 but with more power, better handling and brakes. I love my CB1100.

Glad to know I am not the only one who does this, and usually with an uncontainable smile on my face.

How many times.....many times!
I can't tell you how many times I've been riding along a winding coastal road and let out a spontaneous "yee haawww" or a "yahoo!"
The feeling of delight and self-satisfaction to be riding such a great bike is overwhelming!

I used to work at a Honda dealership and I've rode more bikes than I can remember. From cruiser to super sport, none have smitten me like the CB1100. I found that "love" for the bike (my wife gets jealous from time to time) has kept my bike relatively stock. I have a staintune exhaust on it, but I'm worried that any other significant mods will ruin the experience I enjoy so very much!

I say that to myself often. Also whilst in my car. I love that car.

Almost every ride. Especially the ones that aren't just my daily commute.
