Pros: Unparalelled. The James Bond of motorcycles- classy, yet will kick butt
Cons: Weight on wrists (stock), windblast, insurance costs, recent recall.
Summary: Ever since I first laid eyes on a CBR1100XX Blackbird, I've wanted one. To me, it represented the holy grail of motorcycles- refinement, amazing power, and understated styling. Last March (2004), I purchased a brand new, still-in-box 2003 model with ...

Pros: fast comfortable stable reliable sexy
Cons: aftermarket suspension, bar risers, and wind screen required
Summary: After 12 years with my BMW R100GS airhead I was looking for a reliable sport-touring bike without the BMW price tag and maintenance costs. At 6'3" I'm too tall for the Hayabusa or the FJ1300 (my knees hit the faring on both). The undying Concours was on ...

Pros: Fun, Fun, Fun!! Beautiful lines. An exquisite piece of machinery.
Cons: For longer trips a ST style windscreen is a good idea
Summary: I have a 2001 Candy Apple Red Blackbird that I saw on the showroom floor and just had to have. I have read about them for years and was concerned that this might be too much bike for me at 62 years of age, but I was wrong. To me the most amazing ...

Pros: Styling,power,handling,incredible acceleration
Cons: long distance comfort
Summary: I really didn't intend to buy this bike. I already had a nice bike, a 1982 Suzuki 1100E. I have had this bike for over 15 years, and I only went to the shop for a new front tire. 20 minutes and I would be on my way, no problem. Right?

Pros: Fit and finish; low maintenance; price
Cons: None
Summary: First things first . . . this motorcycle is not for beginners or the faint of heart . . . only experienced two wheel addicts need apply. I purchased mine this past December 7, 2001. The 2000's color is much more exotic than the black of earlier models...

Pros: Style, Speed, Color, Price, Comfort, Stability, Smoothness
Cons: not enough storage, cant ride it in the snow
Summary: This bike is the best I have ever ridden. At low speed and high, it is comfortable, smooth and sleek. The motorcycle is very understated, not overly flashy. The signal lights on the front of the side-view mirrors are unmistakable. This bike is classy...

Pros: beautiful, linked-brakes really work, refined, fast, great for sport touring
Cons: fuel mileage could be better
Summary: If purchasing an open class touring oriented sportbike were all about numbers, the 2001 Honda Dos Equis would certainly be at the top of most people’s lists. In an MCN comparison the CBR1100XX received high honors in several "ten-best" areas: top speed;...

Pros: fast, powerful, strong, need I say more?
Cons: really big
Summary: The Honda CBR series is a great looking motorcycle line with plenty of perks and a long useful warranty. The best motorcycle all around is the 1100 XX. It has the looks, the speed, the power, and the size to make a really great bike. I also really like...

Pros: Every thing
Cons: Limited colors
Summary: I am writing this review on the Honda CBR 1100xx. I have driven the 600F3

Pros: Smooth power delivery
Cons: weight on wrists
Summary: Fast,smooth and a lot of fun. This my first sports tourer after riding sports 600's and it's the best move I have made. A decent tank range and easy power delivery make for fast fuss free riding in all weathers and road surfaces. I ride a mixture of

Pros: Total reliability, modest running costs, power, speed, handling, low maintenance costs, fun.
Cons: Very difficult to say. Slightly softer seat perhaps?
Summary: I've been riding for 20 years now on all sorts of machinery, and as an all-rounder this is simply the best bike you can buy. The quality of the parts, the robust engineering and total reliability are for me beyond anything that any other bike

Pros: It's all good!

Summary: This is the best bike I've ever ridden, been riding 30 years, spent most of it on Harley, the Blackbird is the KING OF THE ROAD. Love this
