I’m listing this machine for a good friend who’s not very computer savvy.. The Honda CB1100R was one of the first exotics from Honda - produced in limited numbers from 1981–1983. It was a full fairing sport bike based on the Honda CB900F, with the R suffix denoting a racing version produced so that Honda could homologate the R as a production motorcycle for European and Australian tracks and prove their design in the race world. It was Honda's first 'homologation special'; primarily sold in Europe and never imported to North America. The factory punched the engine out to 1062cc with a (70mm) bore. Hotter camshafts, forged pistons, a wider primary chain and upgraded gearbox were used. For racing conditions the alternator was lightened and some R's even have a lightened starter clutch gear. Only 1,500 examples were built in 1983. The current owner acquired this example (originally from Scotland) and ran it occasionally until 2005 - when it was decommisioned for display in his collection. It's in excellent condition, but for a small scrape on the right side engine cover (received during shipping). I’ve posted a number of high resolution pictures on Flickr HERE and would suggest that you visit the site as there is a lot of good detail in the pics. We’re happy to assisting world-wide shipping.
