I've had a lotta Hondas. Small Hondas, medium and big ones. I've ridden many many miles on them. They are reliable. They're not perfect. Honda manufactured some minor flaws I've had to contend with, but they're wonderful motorcycles. Good, reliable, fun to operate. I'm not familiar with your new bike but it looks to be very similar to a police variant the local cops use here. I asked one of them one time how he likes working on the Honda as opposed to the traditional Police Harley. He told me that for every day, day in and day out duty, it had to be the Honda hands down. He said he would rather be on the Honda any day, but for parade duty or something similar in the public, they use Harleys. He said it was because of the Harley "cool" factor with the crowds.
