CB1100F Article - January 1983 (Page 2)The CB’s six-spoke cast aluminum wheels have wide hubs that extend outward, allowing the use of flat disc brake rotors, which, according to Honda spokesmen, resist warping better than one-piece dished units. Initially, the semi metallic brake pads seemed to give less braking force than the organic-compound pads used in 1982. As the pads bedded, however. the brakes gained stopping power. Metallic-compound pads generally offer fairly consistent wet and dry braking. In heavy rains, sintered metallic pads can directly cut the film of water that collects between the pad and disc, minimizing the braking delay characteristic of organic pads. For the record, we were unable to test the CB1100’s brakes in heavy rain. Except for color scheme, the CB’s greatest visual change is the new fairing. This cowling shields the rider’s lower torso: the wind blast hits about mid-shoulder, not high enough to cause wind noise at the base of the rider’s helmet. Although it offers little protection, it does provide a nice mounting place for the rectangular quartz halogen headlamp and the cleanly laid-out instruments. No video-game readouts here, just basic information. A small hood cuts glare on the dials. Here’s an electronic footnote-a transistorized turn-signal relay replaces the mechanical unit of yore. Other cosmetic changes include wraparound lenses on the new rectangular turn indicators, a chrome-plated steel-formerly plastic-chain guard and, perhaps the most distinctive touch, black chrome on the exhaust pipes, mirrors and passenger grab-rails. Also, the aluminum supports for mufflers and footrests received Swiss-cheesing for a high-tech appearance. Nearly everything about this machine suggests that Honda designers fine-tuned, by vernier engineering, all the details. The suspension and seat have been firmed, not hardened; the seating is, by virtue of the bars’ usable range of adjustments, successful; the power, though aggressive, doesn’t come in a wild deluge. The bike feels relaxed and balanced, akin to machinery that has been gently aged. That’s an important point. The 1100 stands at the end of several years’ development in the 750/000/1100 series. Honda pursued development rather than cutting it off in the second stage of the series, content to stretch new sheet metal over old bones. It seems likely to us, at least, that the thoughtfully developed 1100F might be a more complete piece than a totally new design-say, a VF1100F type bike-would be in its first year. Development counts; the CB 1100F is 1983’s best proof of that.
