I've always liked the Honda CB models, my bike before the Triumph was a 2000 CB750 Nighthawk, its just that they are a little too tall for me.


'06 America, Raask foot controls, the bike use to be Graphite and Silver, now its Red and Black.

Having been out for a couple of years now in Japan and NZ, etc. These bikes are ripe for customization with a good amount of aftermarket stuff available.

One of the guys on the CB1100 forum just ordered a white tank and side panels.


Nina got me the rear carrier rack for our anniversary:

Bikes always photograph better with racks and bags (just an opinion). I like the red better. The white is OK but looks bland without some sort of accent color.

Agreed, I think the Black is also bland. Thom knew Red was the fastest anyway


It's not speeding till you get pulled over.

Black is beautiful. At least to me. However...Did I ever tell ya'll that in the first week of owning Cinnamon Girl how I got more, "Oh she is beautiful" comments than in the preceding 6 years
of riding Vera Lynn? jeez. And speaking to photographing a bike, the bestest photos are those of a bike loaded down and crossing country.
Na. More like a fender bib and screen-less. Na, more like anywhere other than my garage! No matter what the configuration!

Wanderlust indeed! Are you and Nina contemplating touring on the CB1100?

About a quarter's day ride from the Sun Studio's split off.








Speaking of the Arkansas Rally, PES must be getting excited...
