I like the old girl, but I wonder if she'll be worth it. I've had a couple of really good bikes that were reliable and am kind of spoiled. I would still trust my GS850 to take off for the coast in any direction, and my Guzzis have hauled me as far away as Arizona without a hiccup. This Honda makes a few rattling type noises when cold that go away when warmed up. Sounds like the clutch/trans area. I've ridden it up & down the road, longest run about 15 miles so far. My foot doesn't seem to like the shifter, I may have to set a heel-toe arrangement. I hate the bars with a passion. I got saddles for my horses better than the seat. At least this stuff can be changed out for function.

In order to help others find info on a particular bike, be sure to put the year, make or model of bike that you are asking a question about, in the Topic Title. This will allow people to pass by posts they have no interest in.

Yes the clutch does make a bit of a clatter. The shifter being tucked up under the head cover kinda sucks a bit for having to be sure your foot is 100% off it before downshifting gears. I like my seat. Its the stock seat. Whats yours???
Thought maybe that was the seat..YUP its a pile of cow feces for sure.
