The CB on the Tail of the Dragon

[chync_imp]

The photographers working the Tail of the Dragon have upped their game. Pretty detailed photos while flying by. Wish the forum site would allow higher resolution uploads. The original are quite detailed. (couldn't get the images to display in the post but the dropbox link opens a viewer that let's you click through the images).

Took me a minute to even realize I was looking at a CB!

Did you anodize your hubs?

Sharp looking bike.

These are amazing photos! Wow!! Your bike is beautiful too! I am new to the CB1100 world so forgive me for not knowing all that there is to know about the bike: What kind of fairing do you have? I love the look!

Peace,
Hansen

I think that is the same as the aluminum shroud that is for sale in the classifieds currently that he possibly had painted to match?

Those are 17” tubeless spoked rims from Italy. It’s a 2014 Cb with lots of mods including a 2017 tank. It’s the aluminum fairing from Samurider. Many of the parts are from Samurider.

You had me going for a moment. I thought I was looking at a rare Canadian RS model on the back roads of NC.

I have found a good source for parts to replace the triple tree and forks with inverted forks from a gsxr. That may be my next project. That or start removing the stuff that scrapes the road in a good lean.

Can you tell more about the wheels? Where did you get them?

Nice pics. I was there last year and had a blast.

The wheels are made by Kineo. I bought them through a reseller in The Netherlands. Kineo doesn’t sell direct.

I like your remarks about the thin wallet , how true this is !
next month I will have been riding motor cycles for 50 years and over those years I am certain that I have spend $ 250.000 on my motorcycle hobby and I think that is was money well spend.
Never had to visit a " shrink " in all those years .
