Lovely the Hondas, and great to ride in this weather also. I'm more of a Yamaha man, but sod the r6 few years ago when the little one was born.

Oh the memories.I had a red 750 on an m plate. Sold it an nearly cried when it went off my drive to its new home. Lasted 3 months and got a yellow 800 on a T plate which I swapped for the current one on a 58 plate.All round bikes which do everything you need from touring to brain out lunacy lol.I loved my750 and you know what they say....red ones are faster.Enjoy!

I forgot how good that V4 engine is
![]() Oodles of power and the lovely mechanical whine of the driven cams. I'm very pleased with it and it came with some nice extras too ![]() Jon ![]() |

V4 torque = grunt from low revs. Lovely seamless power unless it's the vtec( then you get a nice little kick in the pants at 6800) and loads of engine braking.My mate nearly rear ended me a couple of times on a ride in Wales cos he didn't realise how quickly I could slow down without touching the brakes! Get a high rise Remus exhaust on it and you will be really pleased.

I bought mine from Demon Tweaks , admittedly it was a long time ago.They definitely look better, sound nicer and easier to get wheel off. Busters or M&P may still have them aswell
