Generally speaking, of the following makes, which one do you think produces the most reliable sportbike? The one that receives the least vote will be deemed as the least reliable.

 

Constant care and maintenance are the best way to make sure your bike lasts a long time. With that said, my vote is for Honda.

 

Suzuki but that's because I have never really ridden anything else.

 

Honda - My F4i has been wrecked twice, and siezed the engine up once and its still going with the same engine!

 

honda--- but maybe im partial

 

come on now....what kind of answer did you exspect from a site named "honda-tech"....lol i picked suzuki....ask on a yahmaha site and i bet you get a different answer......do some research and ask other people...not a site based on a brand...

oh what the hell

suzuki

 

Really... honda. Some would argue that they are so well engineered that they engineer the personality right out of the bikes.

Yeah, I can agree with this statement. But I'd rather have the reliability that goes along with the "well-engineering" (is that even a word?)


I guess my Dodge Caravan has too much personality, then.

 

Reason I did not buy a Honda was being there Ill designed Inline Engines! Though Seems they are getting there act together latley! (though im kinda biased)

Kawasaki Can take a beating and Keep on ticking!

Yeh i drove the **** out of my kawasaki for 2 years and never had a problem with it....my buddy also did the same with a honda, he ran it on factory oil (brand new bike) for almost 10,000 miles, and also drives the **** out of it and and never had a problem they all kick ***, reliability isn't an issue with any bike as far as i know cause they don't last long enough to worry about anyway...hah.

 

I vote honda! ..but then again my kawi '91 ex500 still runs after several beatings

 

Honda gets my vote. My friends F2 ran w/o oil for about 1 month. still running strong.

Manual Cam Chain Tensioner

 

IM, If you want a manual cam chain tensioner. I think I can beat whatever cheapest price you can find is. I can ship same day.

 

damn, honda dominates, no wonder though, it's a honda thread.

 

I would say who gives a **** about reliability it's a motorcycle and not your only form of transportation (I'm hoping).

Buy what's most comfortable and handles best, not what lasts longest.

 

Not all people expect to buy a new bike every other year... and some people actually own the bike rather than make payments

 

All the japanese sport bikes should last about the same as long as you don't abuse them and keep up with maintenence.. It's not worth basing your decision of which bike you want to ride because of how reliable the engine is. People drive BMW's all the time right?

 

bahahaha

 

can you say ex500....

1. howmany of us have them (or did)
2. how many of us learned on them (ie beat the **** out of them)
3. how many turned and sold them after beating the **** out of them for a year or two and made a profit??
