I agree there's nothing proper about Hondas, but Honda should have a capital letter as it's a brand name and Honda themselves use a capital H :P
Conventional wisdom says to know your limits. To know your limits you need to find them first. Finding your limits generally involves getting in over your head and hoping you live long enough to benefit from the experience. That's the fun part.

On the Kr-1s forum if you type in "Honda" the swear filter turns it to "H****" :twisted:

Yup. I had to replace the head gasket which was a bit of a mission but it was a relatively simple engine so a good one to cut my teeth on.
I've been going to college in Lambeth doing IMI 2 in Bike Mechanics ... maybe a twin cam next then.
