Honda CB1100F

...thanks to its smooth power delivered from an 1140cc inline four-cylinder engine with dual overhead cams and an 8500 rpm rev range.

Fuel-injection helps achieve decent fuel economy while a small oil-cooler, combined with 2mm engine cooling fins ensures no overheating. The front suspension comprises 41mm standard forks while the rear is suspended with a pair of preload adjustable Showa dampers.

Visually, the CB1100 is impressive, incorporating a large, clean engine that leans the rider into a purposeful, forward biased stance, perfectly accentuated with the striking lines of the fuel tank. With a seat height of just 775mm, riders of all heights will feel comfortable swinging a leg over the CB.

The clean, simple wheels integrated with the front brake disc carriers, the analog clocks with the large digital readout in the middle, the aircraft style fuel filler cap, the minimalist seat and the Honda badges all give the CB1100F a unique vintage look whilst incorporating all the mod cons of a new bike.

The CB1100F is available in candy glory red and pearl milky white. RRP is $14,990, plus on road costs.
