Pete Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Apparently they are having to recall 8200 motorcycles sold this year, cos the speedos are under-reading by 25%. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...honda_recall_dc Fair play to Honda for the recall though.....cos we know one manufacturer that would try to worm it's way out of it, don't we? 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cterror Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 ahahah. we are haveing a serious discussion on one of finn-forums about honda cbr´s as well, as 9 of the 2003 model cbr600´s have blown their engine. it doesnt sound like much but if i guess that 2-300 new cbrs were sold in finland, thats about 5% of them blow their engine before 5t miles....

XT Alan Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 Hi, I've just had a year of legendary Honda build quality with a CB1300. I've just swapped it for a new XT660R. The Honda had so many little niggles - oil pressure switch, stones wedging between rad and fan making the fan not work, weeping rear suspension, misting up instrument dials, rough clutch cable action, wiring loom recall - it did my head in. Premium brand? don't make me laugh :shock: Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
