Performance & Drive:

The Honda CB1100 gets its power from a DOHC 4-cylinder 1100cc air-cooled engine that generates 89 hp of power at 7500 RPM and 91 Nm of torque at 5500 RPM. It comes with an electric start technology, and it starts the bike quickly without wasting your time. It offers a 6-speed transmission that gives a smooth performance and changes the gears precisely. It is a comfortable bike to ride and gives a smooth riding experience. The Honda CB1100’s performance can be summarized into one word: SMOOTH. The dual bending valve forks in the suspension system are set softly and give a relaxed ride even when gliding over bumps and uneven tracks. The air-cooled engine has a raw sound at low Revs and has different valve timing between cylinders. It comes with a slipper clutch, and you will also get an Anti-Lock Braking system for better safety. The Honda CB1100 feels like a cruiser, and you can go on cruising in 5th or 6^th gear comfortably with better handling. It also runs well at lower gears, comfortably taking you to your destination. It is a 255-kilogram heavy bike, but its weight disappears when you move forward at higher speeds and gears, and it doesn’t feel unwieldy at lower speeds because the center of mass sits low. Its handling is a bit tricky, and beginners will find it difficult to ride because of the narrow width of the front and rear tires. However, the tires are Sportmax Touring, and they provide a reassuring grip on the roads. The braking system is efficient with four-piston calipers at the front and a single-piston caliper at the rear. The rear shocks come with an adjustable spring and deliver good stability. The Honda CB1100 is preferred for cruising over bruising and is not meant to be a sportbike.
