Honda CB1100

She was being neglected and not being treated as she deserved. Glad I was able to save her early and she only has 600 miles. I do think she was driven light based on the previous owner's condition. I gave her a good washing and think she cleaned up quite nice.

Beautiful looking machine.

Congrats!

Nice find! Those bikes are pretty cool and that one isn't even broken in yet.

Take it in and have the first service done if it hasn't been done yet.

Post more pics too, I'd love to see more of it.

I am going to do it later this week. It is really a refined ride and smooth as silk.

I had a 1979 CB750 which was the first year of the DOHC engine. Hang onto that baby, it's an instant classic. Not too many air-cooled bikes anymore.

 

[xaeniac]

Agreed. Keep your eye on the ducati scrambler, think thats going to be a nice bike as well.

really nice! With so few miles I would be very careful at first. Have you turned it over yet?

What do you mean turned it over? I have changed the oil, done the first service, and rode this thing around. Nice and smooth.

Not sure what you mean by that. This is modern motorcycle and it is only a couple years old.

 

[manimal]

my bad guys, was on my phone. Thought it was a 70s cb. Thought you found a 20 year old bike with 600 miles

 

[crashtech]

There's not much on that bike that reveal it to be a modern take on the classic style. Pretty neat.

 

[JulesMaximus]

I'd love to ride one sometime. I threw a leg over it at the International Motorcycle Show the year it was launched.

My favorite bike I ever had. Wish I still had it.

I remember how they made the case to accommodate the 6 cylinders across. Cool bike man, please keep the pics coming.

It's 4 cylinder, not a 6.

 

[crashtech]

There was a straight 6 bike, though.

OOPs I was thinking about the X.

Never meant to imply you were anything less than omniscient; it's just fun to link to trivia for other gentle readers of this thread.

Or you could march down to your local Honda dealer and buy one with zero miles on it.
