If you already have a 900F, I would not think the 750 would offered anything extra. I would just keep what you have.

100% agree with this. The 750 is a real nice bike-- but the 900 is a spectacular ...

Jim, Glad you & family are out & safe - hope the fire gets stopped before it can threaten your home. Ed

A big +1 for Tom's reasoning for building RM 2 and +1 to Hondo 57 as well. After seeing Tom's RM 1, reading thru his build notes, I committed myself to going monoshock with my build. My frame is cu ...

Get a set of Viton Valve Stem seals from Genesound, as well has the hardened cam cap bolts, and use them in your build.

Nobody thinks the Water cooled, fuel injection Bandit 1250 is worth a look??

Oh, it's a good machine, but the Kaw Concours I believe is much better, likely the Beemer too (no experience w/BMWs or F ...

I'm all for gloss paint, to me anything other than gloss is primer. Ed

All there... yeah right; 900.
Why is the engine pulled... 700.
And the forks are pitted, side covers nipples are broken off, dinged tank... 650.
The bike was dropped... 600.
Right at the neck weld ...

Thanks very much for the tips, esp. those re marks/wear on the bolt heads & engine casing. I've cracked open several motors and know well what a PITA it is to get the cyl block off w/o destroyin ...

After a long hiatus I am beginning to work on my bikes again. Back in 2010 or 2011, i bought a blue 1100F from a member living in the Monterey / Seaside area of Cali - his nickname on this forum was ...

Nice to have a different bike on the Home page, particularly a blue model. I would have preferred TomK's bike as I like the mods he's done to it. What's the Norwegian Blue title about.....someone wa ...

Well, it's a slow day.....here are mine, HJC Cyclone and a Zox whatever, both cheap DOT rated helmets. I'll be buying something better that's Snell rated. I bought the Zox as a novelty since I smoke ...

Big +1 there - Redwood & ...

Welcome to the site. IIRC, the signal lites and brake rotors (front at least) from the early ST1100 sport touring model were same or interchangeable w/CB1100F. Good Luck, Ed.

That's a wonderful noise!! Very Happy

'Course I'm not in the garage w/you - really sounds like a great pipe. - Ed.

That's a beautiful paint scheme, I've admired it since it appeared on the CBX's. Thinking about using it on my 1123 build. Beater?? Yeah, sure - color me green w/envy. - Ed.

JT - Sure, PM sent. - Ed

70 mph getoff....maybe enough time for "Oh, shi!!" Very glad to hear you are not so badly hurt - it could have been so much worse. Take your time, recover - you've been very lucky - as you ...

Congrats on retiring! Too many guys wait until after they've compromised their health....that lake beats urban traffic anytime. Ed

..... Peak horsepower is pretty useless on the street. IMHO of course.

+1 Between traffic on hwys and speed limits, few places here you can use it, other than a track. A real shame - I was in Ger ...

It's such a shame that Honda chooses to torture us rather than bring them over here. I would sell a few of my bikes in exchange for one of those babies. +1

THAT.....is a gorgeous motorcycle, maybe I retired too soon. I hope I'm wrong, but I think U.S. & Canada are out of the distribution loop Crying or Very sad
