So here I go buy a brand new beautiful CB1100 last weekend, and what happens?
I get pounded for 400 miles by rainstorms on the ride home

from Sacramento to Los Angeles.
And now I look at the weekend forecast for L.A. - more dang rain!!!

Boring for you Rebel, but look on the bright side: you now own a CB1100.

Rain suit (IMO, 2 piece, with a good collar)! Glove overs! Boot overs ('cause waterproof boots aren't after 4 hours)! Good full face!
Sucks, but sometimes ya gotta do it

Everyone thanks you for your sacrifice. You need the rain real real bad.
Now go buy a telescope. Should have similar results.

Huh, there were some suspicious looking clouds that passed over my end of the Bay Area on sunday afternoon but we didn't get any of that rain.
Any reason you decided to bring 'er home all the way from Sac instead of finding one in the LA area?
Anyway congrats and welcome to the gang!

I had a hard time finding a 2014 DLX in So Cal. Anyhow, despite it all, I enjoyed the adventure!
And thank you!

Rebel73,
When the rain stops, let's go for a ride together. Nice to know there are other CB1100 DLX owners in So Cal.
