honda Scooter reviews

I have owned many motorcycles in my life. I started out with a Honda SL70 all the way to a Goldwing. I love the Reflex because of its design,performance,practicality, and I just love to look at it. The bike is now 13 years old and I still have people marvel at it. This bike has the best qualities of all of my previous bikes all rolled into one. The workmanship is second to none. You will not find another 250cc that is just as comfortable on the highway cruising 55-65mph as it is in town running around at 35-45mph. What I like the most about it is that there is no need for multiple bikes. As long as you don't need to drive for hours above 70mph this bike is up for it. Show less

This is a well-made scooter that is fun as well as practical. I am a very happy owner. Show less

This vehicle is so cool! I am 30 so I have many Harleys and ATVs and this vehicle is the best out of all 10 of them! It even has an iPhone charger and that is extremely helpful for a phone-lover like me. But the best feature would probably be that there are many compartments and that is helpful for when I have groceries or for my supplies as a teacher. this vehicle is definitely "The Bomb.Com."

Upon owning three other scooters, a Harley and various street bikes, this is by far the best overall bike/scooter for me. I am 60 yrs. old and it does everything you could want. It's easy to do errands around town, country roads to enjoy the fresh air rides or being able to keep up with traffic when you need to. There is lots of storage which is great for running to the store. It's so much more than I ever expected. I got a feeling I will be riding this much more than I expected. Show less

After riding Harleys and other big cruiser bikes since the 70's, it was time to quit the 800-pound machines and get something for in town errands. It was difficult to give a scooter a try but I was pleasantly surprised. This bike is fun. It can store more groceries than my Electra-Glide. The left locking fairing box holds a bottle of wine. Try that on any motorcycle. Two full face helmets fit under the seat. It handles the freeway with ease up to 80 mph. traffic, plus it gets great gas mpg. (70). I still miss the sweet sound of a V-twin sometimes, but I can see myself riding scooters for years to come. Show less

I looked at the reviews and can't find any on the new Forza on your website so here's what people should know. This is my first bike ever to be on. Drive or ride, I love how it handles and don't get me wrong. It's great so far and only been a couple months but the only bad I should let you all know is it has some issues. With a second rider with weight of only 130 pounds was a little much for the steep hills we have in Arizona. I am thinking of a larger scooter in the 500-700cc range for that reason. Also, the highway travel for if you have traffic, you need a little more size to feel safe in the flow of traffic. It's a great starter bike and good for around town. Thanks Honda for the ride.

I loved it! It's in great working order! You can go 99 mpg. if you don't dog it! I had it for two years. It's a great scooter. Show less

I've owned several motorcycles over the years including a few other dual-sports. This is the first bike I've owned with fuel-injection. Unlike past bikes that had a carb (or carbs), this bike starts and runs flawlessly and doesn't need to be warmed up before riding. It is perfect on the city streets and the trails. I get over 66 mpg. and like the fact it doesn't need premium fuel. Show less

I upgraded to this bike from a 2009 CRF230L, basically a jump from the 80's to current. Stock is a good start point. Water cooled EFI - that could be better. I went through the best dual sport bikes to upgrade to their performance kit. It was well worth the money spent. My top speed went from low 60's to 87 mph. - just like a 250 should be. They also have upgrades on everything else, too, and the list grows, But for the price and aftermarket stuff you can get, buy the bike, order the parts and get ready for a lot of fun. Yes I said 85-87 mph. on a 250! Show less

I bought this as a general purpose bike to go on and off road riding because of how I liked a friends dirt only 230F model. I do 99% on road riding now because my friend now rides a sport bike and it is not too safe to go off roading alone. This thing is very practical for me. I can commute, visit relatives across town, go grocery shopping. I just load up an over-the-shoulder bag and have the weight rest on the seat behnind me, cruise the neighborhood in the evening after the traffic dies down, and go on group rides so long as they keep the speed to legal limits. This bike will do 70 mph. but headwinds and hills burden its 14 horsepower. I just downshift to 5th gear and it will still rev to 65 and still get 73 to 96 mpg. I mostly average 84 around town. I fill up at about 130 miles before having to switch to reserve. With reserve it will travel about 180. The front tire lasted about 8,000 and rear held up until 10,000 miles. I replaced them with OEM Bridgestones through the dealer because they were the cheapest. The brake pads last about 4,000 miles, which is the same for checking the valves. The super stiff seat and the top speed limitation are my only complaints. Show less
