What the hell is wrong with Honda's? Even more, what's wrong with liter Honda's?

zed · 03-26-2009, 11:09 AM

exactly... fact is I don't see a need for 1000cc inline 4 on the street... especially with me riding it...

there'd be trafic jams at every light... waiting for me to pick the bike up and go to the next light

Thirty years ago, my wife said the same thing, but I got the GS1000 anyway. Eighty horsepower and the first bike with adjustable damping on the rear shocks. Wow. It was $3,000 in 1979, and I got a 10 percent discount for paying cash. My friends told me to wait for the GS1100, but the 1000 on the showroom floor was my favorite color black, and I was making big bucks so I bought it. I still smile every time I get on the bike.

It's a little different when your wife says you shouldn't get it (especially if you want it anyway) and you making a choice yourself that it's not something you want or need.

probably gonna catch hell but...

I like the liter power for commuting. if I want to go somewhere I just roll it on and go, not downshift and go. a liter bike don't have to have the revs up as much to go either. not as buzzy as a 600.

I'd rather a twin for commuting. A SV650 would be my choice for a nice commuter.
