Lots of my friends ride Hondas, and they are just fine....for them. Personally I have never liked them. TO me, in my opinion, for my tastes and purposes,,,they suck. I ride them once in a while. I just don't like them. Don't like the way they handle, or feel. The only Honda I ever owned was an outboard motor for an inflatable dinghy. Bought it new....Hardest starting POS I ever owned....And this has always been Honda's hallmark....easy starting. But not for me...Not for me..
