so would i... Lol this is just a bit different and I'm not planning to change anything. I'm going to ride it bone stock
Nothing wrong with that, all my scooters have basically been stock. I had a '72 CB500, also an inline 4. I thought that was the best scooter I ever had, until my '85 Magna. That is a V4, shaft drive, liquid cooled. I'm on my second Harley and it is nice, but then I have been into motorcycles most of my life.
Vtwins and inline fours are different but in most ways that matter IMO a motorcycle is a motorcycle.
Regardless of that some said on here the Honda CB1100 does not blow away the Sportster. It has a tame motor but it's very smooth and it has a nice wide power band. It should be a lot of fun to ride. It's also worth noting that is has a limit of 109 mph and it has a stepped rev limiter in gears 1-3. Good thing about the 2014 CB1100 is that they gave it a 6th gear. Seems like it would be a fun bike to ride around town and on short trips. I'd be tempted.
