honda cb125 day 1 direct access course ( took it home over night round the north circular it rained, had to save the front end with my feet when i braked a bit too hard and the front end lost grip ) my first brown trouser moment less than 8 hrs after starting
honda cb500 day 2-5 direct access course such a step up from the 125 just enjoyed every roundabout we came to as we'd have to accelerate away up to 60 such a rush
2000 honda cbr600 fx my first bike ran it in for 600 miles then got the full rev range..... life changer did a bit of touring, a track day and commuted daily on it in to central london
2004 honda cbr600 fi / f1 first fuel injected cbr600 very similar to the fx maybe a tad quicker but barely noticable
honda bros 650 mates bike i had a quick blat on
honda sp-1 while my cbr was in for a service the bike shop gave me a few hours on the v-twin 1000cc monster. accelerated so quickly, you were doing illegal speeds before you even knew it
