Having ridden one at the Honda Rider Training center in Colton, CA, I wouldn't mind owning one if most of my commuting was in an urban setting. It's light, nimble, and quick enough (I weigh 140#) for city riding. I don't know about hitting the freeways with one though. It might do 70MPH but how long it takes to get up there would be an issue.

 

An actual informative thread title from Schu?

Can we get sno-cones in Hell now?

I think I've always wanted one of these, if nothing more than for nostalgia (ahhh, MSF class...). Plus, the killer gas mileage is a nice plus.

Oh no. I foresee the crotch shot of Schu on his old bike.

i guess when you've got nothing to lose you dont worry so much about protection

 

70 mpg? Screw that, my dad's Yammie Virago 250 gets 90 some.
And it's a v-twin.
