If your friend is a beginner the early 80's honda 400 automatic is a good choice , if you can find a good one somewhere .

Yep, seen that on the tube the other day.
They said it was tried many times and now Ridley has it right with a CVT.
Victory is next I would think.

Jim

BTW there is even some cars showing up with CVT trannies.

thanks for the info guys, I knew you'd come through for me. Spyder, she want's a street bike so the atk is out. Are those early honda's full auto or just clutchless?
