New bike new forum!
Hello everyone! Traded my 929rr the other day for a new 14 cb1100 so here I am! Gonna spend some time looking through posts but my first question for you all, where do you buy aftermarket parts? I used to get everything from bikebandit but they don't seem to have much for the new cb..

Hello Howdy and welcome to the forum. Wow a 929RR to a CB 1100. That's quite a switch.

RE: New bike new forum!
Thanks everyone! So I do have an odd question, I bought a new 14, I've only gotten it up to 300 miles. The riding season here is pretty much over, would you guys recommend changing the oil before I put it up for the winter or wait until I hit the 600 mile service in the spring? I'm willing to bet the oil is still the factory fill from 2014 (build date on vin sticker is 3/14)

Well it's fairly cheap (like $30) and really easy to do, so it's your choice. Some guys won't let old oil sit in crankcases over the winter.

I would. Like ferret said its cheap and easy to do. Im one of the guys who likes to put my bikes away with an oil change. I was lucky enough to hit the 600 mark on my new 14. I got a little OCD with it and did it at 525 miles, close enough to me. But yeah its so easy to do its ridiculous.
