You are absolutely right on the smells you can pick up you would have missed in a car. When a friend and I crossed from the U. S. to British Columbia, as soon as we crossed the border the scent of millions of fir trees was noticeable. It smelled like Christmas instantly. I would have missed that in a car, and the experience would have been much different.

Lol, I've ridden a dirt bike once I was 4 years old. the best crash of my life. I was completely fine but messed up my body armor when I was going 70 per hour. Today I'm still riding bikes mostly the 250L and the 250L Rally with the yz250 Yamaha. when people crash you either learn from it or give up. trust me once you are good at dirt biking or motorcycling you won't crash I've never crashed my bikes for 8 years. I hope all motorcycle riders have a good day.

I used to rent this bike in Thailand, it's pretty cheap over there, around 20$ a day. She's right, it's a great dual sport, you can go off road without a problem. The only issue for me was horse power. It's really, really weak, you push the throttle and it has little power. It's a pity that Honda doesn't produce a 450 cc bike of the same kind. The 450 CFR (no "L") is a dirt bike, and it can't be used on the streets for long distances.
@pierluigisonsini93887 жыл бұрын
FERNANDO her bike is a dual sport, the CB 500 X is a great bike, but maybe 80/20, I don't think you can do much off road with it. For her trip I would have probability gotten a 1190 KTM. If you stay away from Asia or Maybe Africa you're fine, but in certain SE Asian countries roads are really bad, and you need a dual sport.

I think Honda and other motorcycle companies should make 600cc bikes for short people. I drove a Honda 250 Rebel from AZ to Yellowstone , Wyoming and back and it was fun but, the elevation made me go to 45mph and couldn't go faster than 55mph sometimes. I know it's a small commuter bike and that's why I bought it but, I like the size and weight just needs more power.In AZ I can get it to 85 and to me thats fast enough becuase really no highways in America have over 75mph limit. I have owned a Honda CBR 600 but when you make emergency stops 600pounds is hard to manage and especially when your 5'4. so i think they should make bikes like this model or a Grom with a 450 or 600cc engine with these smaller seat heights. awesome video by the way.

Before setting off... replace any genuine Honda brake and clutch parts for EBC ones as mines barely made 6500 miles so far (even the rear brake pads fall out!). And don't bother calling Honda... it's not covered under warranty! It also randomly cuts out when you stop at lights! The front suspension covers rub on the fork legs which literally wear the metal away which happens a lot as the set up is far too soft. Might be best riding straight to a Yamaha dealer and part ex'ing as a matter of fact if you want to make Dover!
