This board seems to join CB1100 riders worldwide
So wouldn't it be cool to see from wich parts of the world all members of this board are from?

Honda was kind enough to offer this bike to the entire world, at this point or at some point in the past for certain markets.
And since English is one of the most universal langages in the world and many riders found their way to this wonderfull board, why not make a poll at this moment?
I don't think there's been a poll about this right? :)

The options are limited to the continents of the world, except for Antarctica, sorry :)

North-America, Central-America, South-America, Europe, Africa, Western-Asia, Eastern-Asia, Southeast Asia, Oceania.

You can vote and if you wish to do so, and you can also specify where it is you are riding your pride and joy and talk about your country. :biker:

New Zealand, just to the right of but seperate from Australia:thumbsup:
And a famous, or rather infamous, Prime Minister of NZ was once heard to remark that for every New Zealander who emigrated to Australia the collective IQ of both countries went up. I never worked out what he meant by that :).

Cheers
