As always, really enjoyed watching this one. It will be 30 years, in a couple months, since I had to dismantle my CX500Turbo in an old rickety garden shed with no power, in order to replace the failed stator. I sure do envy your beautiful shop, boy what I would have given for one back in the day, or now! Cheers :)

I use the same system makes the rebuild easy, got my latest project a honda vf750f to rolling chassis stage seems I'm going to have more time to work on it than I thought !

Just bought a running and riding CB1100F last week with 14k miles. Same owner for the last 30 years. Only thing not working is the tach. Aftermarket Yosh exhaust and Corbin seat but he gave me the stock exhaus, seat and eng guards.

Great video, cant wait to watch the full series. How often will you be posting?

[@digitalpizza1]

Hi Daniel, Thanks, I will be posting at least once a week. It will be posting the 1100F Engine tear down later this week. Thanks again for subscribing :)

[@bengtalback7415]

Greetings from Finland. Love your videos. When do you think you will have time to continue with tbe CB1100F project?
There are a lot of people waiting for a nice video about the engine rebuild. 😀

[@digitalpizza1]

Hi Bengt, I will be posting more videos on the 1100F soon. I am collecting a lot of NOS parts for the build and I need to finish the current CBX recently featured which will be in the next couple of weeks. I will be posting a video on the initial engine tear down for the 1100F at that time. Thank you very much for your support of the channel :)

Hi can I ask what you do about the brake line do you have a supplier of std rubber line or do you use braided cheers

[@digitalpizza1]

Hi Ian, I tend to want to use the original style Honda brake lines if the bike is going to be restored to original showroom assembly line correct condition. They usually are date coded and is one of those details that separate the men from the boys in restoration. But if it was going to be a resto-mod or a daily rider, then, of course, braided lines are the best as far as function is concerned. If I were to use braided lines, I would get black ones or paint them black at least so they sort of look like the originals.

digitalpizza cheers struggling to find NOS items and can’t seem to find any repro of the original rubber style ones. Thanks again

[@marksloan2323]

Hey what happened to the rest of the series of the CB 1100 F restoration?

[@digitalpizza1]

Hi Mark, I will be continuing the video series on the 1100F later this year. I am finishing a couple of CBXs right now, then I will continue on the 1100F which will be a beautiful bike with many NOS parts that I have collected over the years. Thanks for your support :)

[@rayworx]

Just getting ahead here.... are you going to do any engine work? At least a valve clearance check?

[@digitalpizza1]

Hi Ray, yes, as I mentioned in the video, I am going to rebuild the head and install new rings and hone the cylinders, assuming that everything looks good when I remove the head and cylinders.

Where is the rest of the restoration videos for the CB 1100 F As I have only seen 2 videos so far I'm a bit disappointed to be honest 😢😮

[@digitalpizza1]

I will be doing more on that bike in a couple of months. It will be a beautiful bike as I have many NOS parts going on the bike.
