I've had all kinds of motorcycles and for the past 15 years I have stuck to HONDA's I think they are one of the best. I have never broke down or had any kind of problem with them.
Similarities, differences, which is better?
just a sidenote - I'm interested in a sport bike, if that makes any difference. if Honda still stands, then so be it!
All the Japanese mfgrs are very good. They compete strongly with one another. I'm a Honda man myself because I have a big water-cooled Honda that has 75,000 miles on it and never needed as much as a valve adjustment. But they're all pretty good. And each brand has is devotees.
