Glad you like it Rob it's an awesome bike to ride 😎

This bike is such great value for money $12990 on road and a decent amount of tech. The motor is sublime. 👍

@@timfinning For sure!

As I said in the comment above I've had mine for a month, I'm 182cm 110kg and find it's very comfortable. Although i should imagine I am at the upper level. My wife's 160cm also finds it fit her as well as her cb500f. As for long distance I did a ride out a week ago of 350km and have ordered sw motech panniers, rack and tank bag to tour with, I found it so surprisingly comfortable. As much as I love my s1000r, it will be Sunday blasts now. P.S. I increased the rear preload 2 clicks which vastly improved any slit niggles I found with the slightly budget suspension, but for £6999 on the road it's pretty damn good.

@@tonymartin4274 I'm actually surprised at how comfortable this bike is too Tony. Our national maximum speed limit here is 110kmph and at this speed I found this bike has another side to it - it just smoothes right out so it would definitely make a decent touring bike. Stay safe mate 👍

Thanks Brendan, it's a great bike with lots to offer for a good price

It's a great bike, such good value for the money.

@@timfinning was looking for it online. Currently not available in the USA but it should be soon I believe.

Hi Tony yes I bungled the weights up a bit didn't I but I did correct myself and say it was the 650 😆 but what a great bike so much fun, thanks for watching mate appreciate it. Stay safe 👍

My wife always moans at me for being such a bike stat. nerd.😂

@@tonymartin4274 me too my mates call me bikeapedia lol

Yes mate parallel twins are definitely featuring more and more in bike's for exactly what you thinking. I had it down to 4.3 litres per 100 so definitely good economy.

⁠@@timfinningI think engine heat is a huge benefit too. 4 cylinders just don’t rides as well these days which I believe is down to emission restrictions. This bikes sound is spot on.

Hi mate yep Perth boy. I didn't buy it I had it loaned to me for the weekend to do this review by Powerhouse Midland (The Honda Shop). They are selling them for $12990 ride away. Lot of bike for a good price. 👍

@@timfinning Wow! loaned for a weekend! Joondalup offers 10 min test rides of their bikes! Thats great! Glad you got to enjoy it!

@@mindcave Did you get the black or white? Black is great with the red frame and forks

@@timfinning went for the white as I wasn't a fan of the black in pics. But when I saw it in person, it looked so good and I did ask myself if perhaps I made the wrong choice. Regardless, I love the white!

Yes it probably would,🙂

Yes it would seem so however i got 346kms out of the tank which i thought was good. but that was to empty (As a test i ran it dry)

Tank is fine for the style of bike I think. 300km is great when it isn’t a touring or motorway bike. Of course you can use it for that, but then most would be looking for a bike with wind protection. I would assume this is for urban (traffic light to traffic light racing) and twisty mountain roads riding who enjoy sitting in the wind. Obviously less fuel means less weight high up. Plus this bike can be very good on fuel.
