| WELLZY |
spoted that on ebay but whe i looked at the front bash plate it looks like he has reved the tits off it. | ||
| James |
im sure thats easily replaced or covered, its a honda! it will be ready to go when you want to go on it jim  and it has same exhaust as mine except it has the quiet core in it???? some strange tube anyway. i would go for it personally.
do these have belts grae? |
||
| Big Jim |
No belts, I looked up the spec. They are some fancy torsion/fluid drive. Either 3 speed semi auto or fully automatic. |

| Big Jim |
Yep, the pre 2006 ones were 650 & underpowered apparantly | ||
| James |

| Big Jim |
Got to be 80mph + hasn't it!! | ||

They're ok, but if anything goes wrong with the auto transmission then you have to buy it as a complete unit! 1500 quid just for the unit, plus labour.... | ||
| Big Jim |
Ouch! If the auto transmission packs up will it still change gear on the buttons, or is it just "tough shit" Are they prone to transmission probs? |
||
| James |
how easy is it to break the transmission? | ||
| grae |
hydrostatic honda's (like this one) aren't really that clever, you have to be really strict on servicing them, they're real fussy what oil they get, I wouldn't reccomend getting one, the engine is great its just the transmission that lets it down. BUT... when they're going they're cool, you cant feel it change gear, it just goes and goes.... If the hondamatic (auto transmission) unit packs up you're up shit street, it won't do anything it just beeps and whistles at you.....

| Big Jim |
Hmm, point taken!!
Just thought it looked quite good, but I certainly wouldn't risk buying one with the potentional money pit that is the transmission! Cheers Grae |
