As regulars will know I bought this bike in the depths of the credit crunch - the price I got it for was a good one at a time when Honda had shut up shop in Swindon. Twelve months on the car just carries on - the funny bits I don't like (silly switchgear) I live with but other than that it has been a thoroughly dependable workhorse - with over 20k in twelve months all its had done is a set of tyres (faithfully rotated so they all wore out at the same time !) and half a pint of oil. Other than that nothing.
Fuel consumption is around 42 MPG but deteriorated markedly during the cold spell - but its back to pre-winter levels now.
No rattles or shakes can be a pleasure to drive, smooth engine is not exactly creamy smooth but it is easily lived with.
Good car.
