    CB rads are expensive to replace, but they're not inherently weak. The CB
    handling (once more than a couple of years old) is better than a GS, and the
    motor is more pokey. The CB can feel a bit overgeared though and they're
    still overrated imho.

    On balance if you can find one that hasn't got silly mileage, go for the CB
    and invest in some F365, but keep it away from the seat, it rotted mine to
    buggery...

    Cheers,

    Jon.
