PM Prokiwi...his mate has one. The 3 of us went riding one day...I was on an Ultra 250X Kawasaki, Prokiwi was on a SHO Yamaha, and his mate was on a 2 seater turbo Honda. Conditions were shocking to say the least. Prokiwi and I got caned by the weather but we kept up a good pace. The Honda had a real hard time going fast. But in normal conditions he would have been fine, and also when he gets out into the surf he has a great time

From what I have heard the non-turbo ones are slow and gutless as.

You would want to make sure you are getting it for a good price. There are a lot of Hondas around. Most of them are grey imports, so make sure there is no dramas getting it serviced by your local guy

My 2 cents worth.

If u want speed go Yamaha , if you want Comfort go Yamaha , if you want rough weather ability go Yamaha .

If you want to waste ur money go Honda (Jetski's only ) !!

Try the Yamaha FZS , its the race machine with all the go and stability.
