One of Cycle World magazine's "Best Used Bikes." Here's what they say about it: Basic specs: A dohc, dual-counterbalanced, 1,137cc inline-four that was carbureted in its 1997 introduction and injected in 1999, when it produced 133 hp on the CW dyno. The engine is a stressed member in the twin-spar aluminum frame, which carries sport-tuned suspension and features a 58.7-inch wheelbase. Dry weight was 526 pounds, gaining 8 pounds with the addition of EFI.Why it’s desirable: The “Super Blackbird” was one of the smoothest, most refined, and powerful motorcycles to ever hit the road. The XX fell short of Speed King status by “only” reaching 177 mph, but in normal riding, the bike was a stellar all-around performer. Handling was crisp, light, and sure, with beautiful steering quality. The riding position was sporty but comfortable. Earlier suspension was stiffer but was made more supple in 1999–2003 models. Linked brakes were also improved in post-’99 bikes. The biggest upgrade was PGM-FI, which improved midrange power and fuel economy. Perhaps the best use of a CBR1100XX is as a sport-tourer, particularly in light of the 6.3-gallon fuel capacity of later models, which grew from 5.8 gallons.This is a auction that is AS IS WHERE IS PICKUP ONLY.
