Default the HONDA thread

do you own a honda ?

are they as bland as boring as they are made out to be.

are they as reliable and is the build quality as great as they say ?

tell us about your honda ?

seems like quite a few people on here are now honda owners, just wondering how many there are compared to other manufactures.


disclaimer - this thread isnt to provoke other users - so please keep it civil

Entirely possible that the bikes are quite good....but obviously those that ride them are unhelpful, unsociable, and entirely up their own @rses.

Which is why you're asking this question on a Suzuki site!

Most of us come from down South too

Best bike I have ever owned, the better build quality is clear to see

But I'd love to have anoter SV as a 2nd bike...

I would never buy a Jap bike because of the manufacturer.
It's not like the same as BMW or Ducati or Harley.
I would buy a Honda if i liked the particular bike, not because of any other issues.

I don't believe there's anything special about Hondas - I've owned several over the years. Apart from a slight tendency to odd ideas technolgically they go, stop, handle and rot no better or worse than any other Jap bike.
