Title: I finally bought my first Honda.
Post by: klaviator on June 15, 2022, 07:53:52 AM
Over the years I have owned a bunch of Yamahas and Kawasakis.  I also owned one or more of other brands like Suzuki, BMW, Aprilia and Kymco.  I bought a Honda for my wife and a couple of Honda dirtbikes for my son.  I never bought a Honda for myself.

Last week I drove up to Johnson City TN and bought my first Honda.

It's a Honda ADV150

I topped off the tank when I brought it home and then filled it up yesterday after riding 166 Miles.  1.67 gallon = 99 MPG

I expect the mileage to drop once I start riding it harder.

I expect around 90 MPG for normal riding maybe a bit less if I really flog it.

I put a tailbox on it to make it a more useful grocery getter.

I look forward to reading ride reports involving this bike!
