Greetings from western NC...
I joined this forum to gain information and get owners perspective on what will my be next motorcycle, the CB1100.
I started riding in 1974 so the "Universal Japanese Motorcycle" really appeals to me. The CB1100 is a perfect example. It seems in the last few years the nostalgic look is shifting from the 40s-50s to the 60s-70s with the release of the CB1100 and Kawasaki's W800, not to mention Triumph's Bonneville line. I hope it catches on and the other manufacturers decide to jump in. I'd love to see modern versions of Suzuki's GS series and Yamaha's XS line.

Now, if I can just find a job or if Publisher's Clearinghouse would hurry up and send me my money Big Grin I could buy one.

Welcome aboard. I bought my CB11 to remind me of my old '82 GS750L.

Hope Ed McMahon's crew is headed to your door with a big check and bunch of balloons!!

Out of the few bikes I've owned I consider the '77 GS550 the best. I wish I had held on to that one.
