Reliable, stable and easy to ride. | ||||||

I rode one of these for ten years and can say that It is surprisingly reliable. Shure, it is heavy and it vibrates* enough to break its battery, but it has a low seat and is very comfortable for short rides, so it is a great around-town motorcycle that has a nice sound. It is also surprisingly capable on roads of soft gravel (due to its wide tires and stability). Mine came with a windshield, but it is much more plesant to ride without it and you don´t need bar-backs. Just let the handlebars pull you through the wind. Of my motorcycles, this Honda is the one I ride most frequently. * I wanted the ´Harley sound´ in a Japanese bike. The single pin crankshaft provides the sound, and the vibration. |
