1981 Honda GL 1100

First released in 1980, the GL1100 was the same bike as the GL1000, but with some improvements. The engine was the same, but it was bored to a larger 1085cc cylinder, and electronic ignition replaced the older point system.
The suspension was changed to an air adjustable system (a first for a production motorcycle). The kick starter was removed because it was practically impossible to kick start the large engine
