2014 honda reviews

This is a great ride. With a V4 four stroke it has a smooth acceleration and ride, with a nice wide seat. Bluetooth audio was a nice plus for this machine. Saddlebags make it very functional for short runs or a weekend overnighter. Highly recommend the CTX as a sport cruiser. With a 1300 cc engine it is a lighter handling bike. Show less

This is great bike once you get the front suspension lined out. I have owned every thing from a hayabusa to ultra classics,1800 goldwings if this one had cruise control it would be the winner, front springs to your weight and 5" of fluid from top of forks (very impotant] and the bike changes use 5 weight. This bike handles great and is very comfortable. May be my last bike I really enjoy it. Show less

The ctx700 is a extremely reliable and cheap to maintain with 8000 mile service intervals. It's low center of gravity and seat height makes it extremely easy to handle for beginners and short people. It's extremely fuel efficient, about 65 city and 50 hwy. The only negative is the seat and short windshield. Upgrade those two items and it will be great. The drop down bar doesn't list the700 faired model which is what I'm reviewing. Show less

Let me start by saying the bike is the quietest thing I have ever rode. It also rides very smooth, and it looks really nice. The factory windshield us a joke. Wind buffeting at highway speed is almost unbearable. My huge disappointment us the power, or should I say the lack of power. I haved owned a Kymco Downtown 300i and I just found it to be a much more powerful enjoyable bike to ride. I would trade my Forza for another Downtown 300i in a heartbeat. My Forza to seems only a little bit stronger than the 2007 Reflex that I had. Overall after all the Honda Hype, I am disappointed. Show less

I have owned a 2014 Honda CTX 1300 deluxe for 5 years. Extremely comfortable, nimble and powerful bike . The ABS braking system excellent. Great fit for someone ~5'5" to 5'10". Always reliable. Good for long rides and cruising around town. A mini Gold Wing of sorts. Show less

This baby is not only beautiful to look at but it has great performance!! Has fast pickup speed and very easy maintenance. It has a crazy amount of storage under the seat to where I can put my helmet and my armored jacket, or just put a lot of groceries under the seat. It has a lockbox on the left where I can put so much stuff and then one on the right that does not lock. I fixed mine up to where it looks like a MotoGP bike, but when I got it, it had a very bright cherry red color. I think it's a perfect combination for in City riding: it gives you the speed you need and versatility to get around anything Plus it'll take the highway easily. I once Cruised 85 miles an hour with a Honda silver Wing and two Harlyee's next to me. You get the best of both worlds: the style and impressive looks of Italian design and the dependability of having a Honda engine. With all due respect, I'm glad I didn't get that Honda Ninja 300cc bike. This bike rocks!!! Show less

I love this flat 6 beast! The Valkyrie ride like a sport bike, it's a breeze when you are cruising, very stable and a lot of fun on the road. Overall very fast, powerful, and comfortable. Over the years I owned several motorcycles, but this one is a real keeper!!! Show less

This is my fourth motorcycle and it is easily my favorite. It is super comfortable on long journeys and easy to take around town. It handles the highway speeds without any trouble (but if you want to go over 70 you would benefit from adding a bigger wind screen). I’m 5’8” and have had no trouble handling this bike. If you are looking for the big rumble of a Harley, this isn’t the bike for you. This bike has everything else you could want in a motorcycle and nothing you don’t. Show less

I own a honda ctx d ct and would not trade it for anything. It is is a very thought out bike. A pure joy to ride and own. The d ct took a little to get used to but now I just enjoy the ride instead of changing gears pulling in clutch. Lot of people will probably bash this bike without even trying it but there will always be haters. For me this bike is it. Happy I bought a honda. Tim j. Show less

I bought my CB1100 new from the local Honda dealer in 2014. It replaced my 2007 BMW F800. For the first few years I used it as a daily driver (I didn't own a car at that time), commuting to work, and for weekend excursions with friends (Harley riders) into the winding roads of the Texas hill country. First of all, the CB 1100 is a beautiful motorcycle with the street cred to hang with my Harley buddies. Second, the performance is astonishing. The in-line four pulls strong off the line and doesn't quit. The power delivery of this liter bike is smooth at all engine revs, and there is more of it than I ever use on city streets and highways. This bike never squawks or complains about anything. I can relax and enjoy the ride, or when I want to quicken the pace, my CB1100 is right there with me, eager to go. As a daily commuter the bike is very comfortable and practical. I'm average height (5'-10") and can say it is easy to put both feet flat on the ground. The idle speed is a quiet and gentle purr. In first gear the bike just rolls happily along with almost no throttle input. Twist your wrist, though, and the massive engine comes alive instantly. What fun! Reliability has been great; no problems as all. Fuel mileage is solid at about 42 miles per gallon, and usable range is around 150 miles before you feel like it's time to refuel. What could be better? This bike checks all the right boxes for riders like me who love to enjoy the open road, sharing good times with other motorcycle enthusiasts. Show less
