2018 honda reviews

This bike is amazing! If you don't like talking to people, this isn't the bike for you... people will ask you about it anywhere you stop :) Not only is it great offroad, but it's great for touring too, which is how I primarily used it. I have pics of it at the Tail of the Dragon, Back of the Dragon, in WV, NC, OH, etc... The suspension and wind protection on the highway are great. The bike has the power to cruise at 80mph without trying, and the Seat Concepts seat is fantastic for long hauls. Don't get me wrong - it will go offroad like a bikes half the size. I took an offroad riding certification course on it and was blown away by what this bike can do. It has so much low down torque, that you really have to try to stall it. And the course instructor was on an Africa Twin too :) Show less

Very well priced bike with a ton of features and the quality of the premium brands (BMW/Duccati). This is the most comfortable long ride motorcycle I have tested, among others BMW, Ducatti, Harley, Kawasaki, both cruisers and dual sports. The Adventure Sports model is extremely gorgeous and its presence is impressive. It calls for attention everywhere I go, even from Harley fanboys aha. I have tested the DCT model of this bike but it gets very boring very fast. Most folks I know prefer the manual mode, even because it is more responsive on traffic. I have ridden the AT model for 5 years and not a single mechanical issue. The engine is very reliable because of its low compression ratio. The engine sound even with stock exhaust is remarkably likeable and somewhat loud. I did not feel the need for an aftermarket exhaust. The engine power is immense 97HP for a bike this light (520lb) but it feels very balanced and secure due to the electronic delivery modes, which provide dozens of different combinations of configuration. Due to the tall position, it is the perfect bike if you are exploring a region as your head will be usually above most passenger vehicles. Although it is a tall bike, the seat is not that high up. I am 5'10" and I can plant my feet on the floor with the seat in low position. The center stand is a must have for maintenance. The bike comes with a built-in 12V socket that you can use to power your USB devices and phone. Overall fantastic motorcycle for the price. I don't see any competition in this price range. Show less

Excellent bike. No complaints other than I'd like to have a little more power now. Show less
