I have had an 84 Sabre for 2 years now...it had 12,000 miles on it and was in great shape....needed a good bit of engine tuning as the previous owner did his own work, but once some seasoned veterans at Aurora Honda got to work on it, it rides and drives like a brand new bike. Great acceleration and very smooth at all speeds. Heavy front forks at low speeds but rock solid at cruising speeds and in high speed turns. Would love to hear from other owners, just loving this bike and I used to ride a Honda CB400T back in 1980.
