This bike feels like I actually fit it-6'3" 250#. The crash bars with the pegs are so cool to use and very comfortable. I would have never thought of that idea. The Corbin seat seems very hard at first, well actually all the way through the ride, but it was never uncomfortable. I kept thinking, "Man this seat is hard, yet it doesn't hurt, and seems as i could ride hours without issue". The high revving engine takes a bit to get used to. I dont thinki ever revved it over 4.5k. Compared to my other bikes it just seemed strange to hear the engine rev that high. The windshield will need to be adjusted. It made my helmet vibrate so much that my vision looked like what i normally see in my mirrors on the Buell. HAHA But man do I love this bike. OH, is there a trick to get this bike on the center stand? i wrestled with for a while until I finally got it. Cant wait to get more seat time on the way to work.

And I want to publicly thank Mr.Fuzzy for everything during this transaction. He truly is a stand up guy. Fuzzy, I owe you a beer if we ever meet up again.

I'll take you up on it! Just stand & push down on stand with your foot. I had same problem was trying to lift bike up on it. No need if you just push down on it while standing on left side of bike. Just keep it straight up with your hands.

Youtube: how to put motorcycle on center stand. Easier to watch than explain. I do it mostly like this guy only I do less lifting and more putting all my weight on my right leg which is in the center stand tang. Make sure both of the center stands feet are evenly on the ground,, and the bike is standing straight up on them.

I find the CB 1100 easier to center stand than my ST 1300 ( by a bunch), but not as easy as my Nighthawk 750 or FZ-1 was.
