I´m the happy owner of a Honda Sevenfifty since six years. It was a second hand machine which had less than 20000 kms. Now my motorbike totalizes 80000kms. I´ve travelled through Europe(From Brittany to Greece, Southern part of France, Belgium, Slovenia, Alsace...) without any problem.It´s a really strong machine, four cylinders cooled with air, what could be happen? However, the brakes is the only negative point: with two persons,and make sure that me and my wife aren´t fat,braking in emergency can be a problem and if the road is wet and your carry some luggages it can ther be dangerous.So, drive carefully, it´s not a sport engine and i wish you nice and long,long, long trips.
