CB1100

Honda's CB1100 packs a rare air/oil-cooled 1,140cc inline-four — an engine configuration nearly extinct in modern motorcycling — in a retro naked package with wire-spoke wheels and a flat bench seat. Discontinued after 2016 with a limited US run, used examples at $5,500–$8,500 appeal to riders who want an analog large-displacement four-cylinder experience that no current production bike replicates.
