The Honda CB1100 is a 1,140 cc (70 cu in) air-cooled inline four-cylinder naked bike that was introduced by Honda in 2010 as a modern spiritual successor to the original CB750. At introduction the motorbike was available in Japan, Australia and New Zealand; it was later introduced to Europe and the United States in 2013.[3]

The CB1100 is styled as a Universal Japanese Motorcycle. The model underwent a revision in 2014, gaining a sixth gear and new gauge cluster. Honda also released the CB1100 Deluxe, an upgraded variant on the standard CB1100. The 2017 model was updated with front and back LED lights, a new lighter exhaust, a seamless fuel tank made of pressed aluminum, and the addition of a slipper clutch.

The CB1100 ended production in 2022.[4]
