Anyone have any experience with this bike? I'm trying to decide between the Honda and the Suzuki M50. I like the look of the Suk better, but wondering if I'll miss the 300cc that the Honda has. Any thoughts/opinions would be appreciated!

I had a VT 1100 C , this engine has been around a long time and is darn near "Bullet Proof"
I sold mine with 80,000 miles on it and the fella who bought it is still riding it, and thanks me every time I bump into him
Worst complaint ? sounds like its only runnin on 2 cylinders LOL
Go for it Dude it is a GREAT Bike and you will love it !!
Here you go, I even scared up a photo 4 U

Nice ride!!! Glad you had such a great experience on it! Since you only mentioned the sound, I'm assuming you didn't run into any mechanical/handling issues?

I NEVER had any problems with the bike, and I run the snott outta my bikes !
I was just joking about the "sound"
I did an Ironbutt ride on this bike
(SS 1000) and put 5,000 miles on it in a weeks vacation to Key West . Change the oil & Filter every 4,000 miles and you will not have ANY problems with this motor .
I just wanted something a little bigger , so I got this one
