Re: 2006 Honda 599...Honda has lost it's way.
The price is way too high. I bought a new current year ZRX1200R for less! The bike uses old tech and has no real "features", per say.
I am a "Honda guy" and have owned no less than 18 Honda bikes, 7 cars, 2 lawn mowers and a generator. Their entire 2006 street line is overpriced, ugly, has medeocre performance and is leaving the door wide open for the Chinese to kick their ass. They need the thrilling products like the old CBX (how bout an update?) the original Interceptor and CBR900. Where is the excitement...not in the 599 or even their "also-ran" CBR1000RR (should be called the CBR1000ZZZZZzzzz)
I have to vent because they can do better. The damn 919 should cost $6995 and the 599...$6195...Honda, GET REAL!!!
