CB1100F Article - January 1983The power unit underwent three major changes for 1983: more cubic inches, increased compression and extended cam lifts and openings. The true displacement is 1062cc or 64.8 cubic inches. That’s just 160cc-9.8 cubic inches-larger than lasl year. The new 70mm pistons’ higher domes bump compression from 8.8 to 9.7:1. (Recommended fuel type is 94 RON.) The cylinder head remains basically unchanged, retaining the same port shapes and valve sizes. Cam profiles now lift the valves to a maximum of g.Omm, up O.5mm on intake and 1.0mm on exhaust. Intake and exhaust duration have been extended five degrees each, producing 230 degrees duration and 25 degrees overlap-European CB1100R valve tim ing specifications. The 1100F has 33mm carburetors, one millimeter larger than the 900’s. Downstairs, the crankcase has larger spigot holes to accept the cylinder’s bigger liners, though the crankshaft assembly is unchanged. To help the transmission withstand the extra punch, Honda gave the mainshaft a new heattreating process and widened fifth gear 1.4mm. Engineers chose a twin-gear clutch hub to reduce noise and backlash. This system uses two gears side by side, one a tooth smaller than the other. The last drive line change is a smaller rear wheel sprocket, down two teeth to a 5.04:1 ratio. In addition, a bigger oil cooler, now eight-pass instead of four, doubles cooler potential. Honda placed this powerplant in a modified CB900F frame, rubber mounted as before. (The CB1100R has its engine bolted rigidly in the frame.) The engineers moved the entire steering head back 10mm, and lengthened the steering stem 21mm. Head angle is 28.5 degrees (one degree more than the 900F’s); trail is increased 10mm over the CB900F’s. The net result of these changes leaves the front wheel’s relationship to the engine unchanged from the 900F’s. At the rear, the all-new boxsection swing arm, which pivots on needle bearings, extends the wheelbase 10mm and places slightly more weight on the front wheel. Though the new fork still sports 39mm lubes, it carries a three-way rebound damping adjuster at the lOp of each leg, as well as a cross-linked air fitting on the right side. The rear shock absorbers have new hand-adjustable three-way rebound damping rings at the top. (Adjusting the goo’s shocks requires a 1001.) The two-way compression damping also has fingertip adjustment. Almost any rider will find a satisfactory suspension setup for his kind of riding-with one exception: the lowest sailings may be a lad too firm for riders under 140 pounds who want an Aspen cade-like ride Increased slightly, the fork spring rates now follow current Honda practice-springing requires less air pressure. High air pressures increase seal pressure against the fork leg; reducing pressure decreases distinction and proves ride. Although sound in theory, the changes produced a firmer ride than that of last year’s GB9CX)F. A built-in fork brace connects the lower sliders, which feature Honda’s TRAG system. We like the TRAG and value its four-way adjustability for tuning the anti-dive effect. The fork brace completely eliminates flex between the handlebars and wheel.
