Overview
The Honda CB 1100 RS is a naked motorcycle produced from 2017 to 2020. For 2020, it pairs a 1,140 cm³ oil- and air-cooled inline-four with 88 hp (66 kW) and 91 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm, and weighs 252 kg wet.
The 795 mm seat and 252 kg wet weight make its size noticeable when moving it around at low speed. Its 16.8-liter tank gives a calculated range of about 317 km, while preload adjustment at both ends lets riders tune the suspension for their load and preferences; the twin front discs use four-piston calipers for braking.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Adjustable suspension
Spring preload adjustment at both the front fork and rear shocks allows the suspension setup to be tailored to rider and luggage load.
Strong front braking hardware
The two 310 mm front discs and four-piston calipers provide substantial braking hardware.
Useful tank range
The 16.8-liter tank is associated with a calculated range of about 317 km between fuel stops.
Things to consider
Heavy at low speed
At 252 kg wet, the bike takes more effort to maneuver in tight spaces than a lighter machine.
Limited ground clearance
The 130 mm ground clearance leaves less room beneath the bike over bumps and steep transitions.
Chain upkeep
Its chain final drive needs periodic cleaning, lubrication, and adjustment.
