Honda CBF Unicorn 150cc
Lets see a bike that I purchased in 2005, when it was just launched. I booked it after looking at a pic of this motorcycles tank. It was more like love at first sight, than a well thought out bike purchase.
This bike is a rattler, the plastic and materials used is quite bad and finishing not what one would expect from Honda motorcycles. I mean the panel gaps are like huge. Design was a bit confused on this motorcycle and it still is.
Well, the nagging stops there.
My experience with this machine has been nothing but beautiful. Yes, I have had my share of accidents(collage days). But its still running as good as ever. The refinement in this engine is beyond comparison, I still feel it when I test drive all these new bikes.
The riding position - I agree, not very sporty looking but your back will appreciate it, trust me.
I still ride it from Bangalore, my home to estate which is more than 200km in one go, never faced a single issue, considering its a 11 year old bike.
I must tell you, this bike is not loud and it will never be.
its not a jaw dropper look wise.
its quite heavy.
its a bike that does what it needs to do silently, comfortably while giving a decent mileage
Always prioritize your expectations, which ever bike it may be, before making the big jump.
