Ooh, that's better - Part III

Don't new bikes smell wonderful?

57 miles up now, and I feel at home already.

****, That's ugly. CIHAGM?

 

Hmm, like a ZRX, only honda-ey.

 

Heavier, slower, less exciting?

Yeah, pretty much.

heavy, bloated, stuck-in-the-80s styling, mildly tasteless, fairly
unpopular.

Your new bike's pretty horrible too.

 

Has this post come through from 1982 or have you bought one of Mr Honda's
finest retro's?

 

Sir needs to rack up some more miles. I suggest out west, tomorrow.

 

Well I like it.

 

Enjoy!

I was impressed by the hole in the trainer.

 

Is that an insult?

 

I imagine yours has got much fresher suspension than mine though, so
it'll balance out.

 

Nice. I've always liked bikes like that.

 

I've always thought it a mix between the GSX14 and the ZRX with a bit
of XJR thrown in.

 

So do I

Even though the ZRX has that nasty "add-on-look" fairing, I prefer the
look of it over the 'onda.

Sorry SD.

I guess 80's throw backs are an acquired taste.

I'm glad I only started getting interested in bikes in the late 90s, I
think by then they'd mostly got the hang of making nice looking bikes.

 

I'll offer up a mini-review when I get back from this afternoon's
little jaunt.

I had a go on one of those, years ago:
