My new 2010
Finally got around to taking some pics after having a lot of fun riding it. Can't believe how good this bike feels, everything in the right place. When I picked it up it had only 556kms on the clock - in 7 years!!! I can feel the motor starting to loosen up now I have taken it on a few long rides.
Things I would change - it just screams out for a 6th gear on those long straight roads and the seat can be a bit numbing after a couple of hours!!
Other than that, it puts a smile on my face every time I get on it.
Plans - looking at putting a 4 into 4 exhaust on to give it a better sound and looking to see what luggage options are around.
Now if only Honda would bring in the new 2017 in to Australia.....

Nice. The 6 th gear issue was addressed with the 2014s. The seat issue is usually fixed after market. A lot of peple love their Staintune slip ons made right there in your country

342 miles in 7 years! Even crazier than the Denver one.

Love that 2010! The white was available in Canada in 2013, but not with a blank tank and those grey side-covers. Also love the non-blacked out engine, looks great!!!!

RE: My new 2010
Btw that is the factory low seat if I'm not mistaken and I'd bet you could find someone on this forum to swap you for a US taller version of the same seat.

Looks like the low seat to me too. Wish I could try one sometime.

If you come to a fork in the road, take it!

I have a brand new 2013 seat with maybe 60 miles of riding time on it. I replaced with a K&H cafe seat. If you need to swap (although the OP didn't say that) mines available.

I just picked up a 2014 Deluxe with 358 miles/576 km. That is a great looking bike and that mileage count is nuts! It's like getting one of those 'barn find' bikes except it's already shiny.
