What is the best Honda bike to buy, for a platform, rareness etc?

[cobraace2]

I think the gs1150 actually made the most power and tq of all those bikes by a notable margin.

My first suzuki is a newer hyabusa and it is a magical bike.

Ha Hyabusa a friend of my has one and I schooled him with my 83 650 Honda ;D he said any time any were i pick the rules : ok roll-on from 50 mph top gear poor guy didn't know what him

Look I'm not a big Honda fan but without Honda the other 3 wouldn't be here Honda paved the way and they deserve our respect that's all.

Who cares who was first? I can understand liking a particular model because it represents a historic shift, but to say you like or dislike any brand by the actions of their founders over half a century ago is dismissive and misguided.

I like JEEP's just fine, but I wouldn't buy a modern one no matter how great and influential the CJ's were.

Now you you got it ;D Honda opened the door and made it acceptable to ride Japanese bike's then pushed the bar ever higher

Meh, I'm more impressed by the fact that this troll thread is pushing 150 posts.

when honda first came to the USA they went around to independent shops(that's all there was back then) hardware stores whatever, they would bring a lil honda for the owner to try out then sign them up for more...
no money was asked for until units sold,it was this goodwill kind of marketing that made honda succesful

What I'm getting at is how does Honda being stood up by the smokers, as per plain physics, in the 1970's have anything to do with the performance of their modern CBR's? Judging a brand by its past is literally that stupid.

Triumph held to their 1940/50's based motors until the bitter end, but that doesn't mean that the new incarnation of the marquee has anything in common. Literally. #131

coming up soon is the world's toughest race on wheels and honda just may take it again for the first time since the late 80"s

LITTER_RALLY get it ?

As long as it's not Suzuki, the world Is right.

hay hay hay hay now my first bike was a suzi, it was scrambler-calf WAY ahead of its time

I just give em a hard time because they are the Chinese knocks of the Japanese industry, cut corners, and have the least innovative or mech-friendly engineering.

Kawasaki break the sound barrier, Honda are world-renowned for reliability, and Yamaha are hanging in there with only one complaint; they don't care for the poor knuckles or thinning hair of their mechs.

Oh my god... are you guys still talking?

 

[Tim]

They're just trying to build their post counts

 

[Sonreir]

Do we get achievements for post counts? That should totally be a thing.
