    Hi, Great website, glad I stumbled onto it!  This is the only picture I have right now, my pc fried the motherboard and this picture is actually the wallpaper from my son's pc.  It was taken this spring at a bike show hosted by Hooters.  My son had to have his picture taken with our waitress, (whom he fell in love with).  I had actually spent about an hour writing the history of this bike when my son needed to use his pc
    and it locked up on him, (of course, I didn't save it first).  I don't have the time today to start again so I'll give you the basics you ask for, then write the history another time and send it on. 

    '83 CB1100F
    VIN JH2SC1106DM002815
    Manufactured 7/82
    Mileage 32,436

    I built her out of the crate, totaled her, rebuilt her, sold her, bought her back, restored her, sold her again, bought her back again and just completed a 4 year frame-up restoration/modification project on her.
    Here's what I've done to the engine in my 1100F: 1123cc ceramic coated/moly coated Wiseco pistons, WebCam H-5 cams, Kaz Yoshima head w/polished valves, RD springs, Falicon SuperCrank, 36mm Keihin CV Flatslides, hand fabricated V&H SS2R pipe, Accell coils & wires, Barnett clutch, Murdoch undercut tranny, all new bearings, tensions & slippers, walnut shell blasted the cases & re-painted everything, etc., etc.
    Haven't dyno'ed her yet but several industry buddies estimate 160 - 170 bhp.  In my experience, that's a bit optimistic.

    I graduated from AMI in '75, was one of the 1st 100 Register Honda Tech's in '78, was a District Service Manager for American Honda until '90 and now own my own business called, For Hondas Only.  I road raced from '85 - '87, built all my own engines and chassis and have built many, many hotrod engines over the years.  This motorcycle has quite a colorful history that I'd like to share with you and other F owners so
    I'll try again to write it in the next few days.

    Regards,
    Michael Rush
