Why do you love your Honda?

The Harley guys had one, figured we might as well too.

I'll start. I love my Sabre because it's sort of a cross between two things I love. I love the styling and comfort of cruisers, but I also love revving the "poo poo" out of things. That's the Sabre to me. It's a cruiser that's comfortable and great for long rides. The engine is perfectly balanced, and although it doesnt have that single-pin, narrow order sound, it also has no vibration to speak of at highway speeds. But when I get in traffic or the twisties, I can drop the hammer and rev the everliving hell out of it (well, for a v-twin anyway). I also love that it is designed to have as little required maintenance as you can get on a bike. And it doesn't hurt that it was only 8 grand.

I like the look of my classic Honda. However I would have to say mine must be a lemon or was thrown together pretty poorly by the guy I go it from because WHEN it runs, it runs for poo. However, there are a number of 360T's in town and I've talked to a couple of those guys and I get what you guys have said. Reliable, easy to work on, plenty of gusto and didn't break the bank.
