Well I've always loved Hondas, I wanted a liter bike because of the torque and it fit my riding style and I liked the lower end grunt, plus this particular bike was to replace my mustang so I wanted torque. I use this bike to commute back and forth to work which is about 60 miles round trip on the highway and like the extra grunt of the 1000. The 2004-2007 body styles were my favorite and I found my bike a 2004 with only 2000 miles on it for a great price and it was clean, my friends thought it was a brand new bike when I brought it home. I drove to Atlanta (roughly 3 hours each way) to pick it up.

I also have a Ninja 500 that I bought to teach my wife how to ride and I use it for commuting and general riding, just thought it was a great all around bike.

We then purchased a Honda F4I because, I love those bikes and the fact that they are comfortable, and a bit more practical than the RRs but still capable performance wise.

I have a Honda 650 and a Hondamatic 750 at my shop that were his.
