If I said its the fifth one I've owned, you get your answer. Only problem is lack of wind protection, but that just saves your license. 0 - indicated 155 in one gear. Mods....only if I can pick up a used PC3. Last one I had made 127 at the wheel ( full system, K&N, custom map )or 119 without the downpipes, but tbh its good enough as is.

Would still like my old storm parked next to it though.

Hopefully a while mate, but they normally get moved on when work goes tits up and I need some cash. Fingers crossed and all that. You and Marty riding up to the dyno day ??

Nice bike...I like the faired version better, but those colours are classic from the original CB1100r :thumbup:


You bringing it to the dyno day?

Yeah, not bothered about running it, just for the day out. I had the faired one in 2008/9. More practical, but I prefer the naked look.
