Hello Doug, Re Honda Vigor , I,ve had one for about three years, Its ok the original metzer tyres are terrible in the wet! Bike is alot better with Brigestone BT45s about £129.00 pair fitted. Top speed 100mph off road of course. Its not possible to fit standard panniers due to the high level pipes, though some throwovers ok. Very reliable, as long as maintence done, change oil every 2000miles instead of 4000 in book. Its a bit bouncy at the front, thicker fork oil would sort this out. Only side stand, but have seen after-market one availible, not much to go wrong, had some dirt in carb ,it got a bit gunged up as had it off road for a few months, but ok .Still on original chain at 19000miles. No fuel guage but u get used to that. Best Regards Pink
