This 650 lb Honda behemoth is certainly the opposite side of motorcycling from the perspective of ninjette and such lightweight sporties. Their (mature) owners rave on its comfort, reliability and pile many miles on....200K+ not unusual at all.

Gulp...I will test ride after new tire install before handing it back to the 70 year old local owner (friend of a friend). Want to assure no running issues whatsoever. I gotta admit, its size and weight are rather intimidating. Being a lightweight I had to employ additional help to get it up on the centerstand!
