Honda's are gr8t...
 

Ok, now that I got your attention, they are at least good for one thing. They make good ATV's and generators, stuff like that. But for cars, as we all know, they stink. It's weird that they good products in one area, but suck in another. I mean, u don't see Ford atv's rolling around do u? And if u have, please take a pic of it for me.

How many other of u own a honda product? I have a Honda 3-wheeler.

you see any honda farm tractor's around, nope, but you cant beat an old ford tractor, or back hoe, we have old ford tractors from the late 60's - early 70's still stroking, cya. :D :D

We use a quad to push the Sprint car around.

Take care,

Thats true, the best ones are john deer and ford, thats about the only ones u see around.

the new john deeres suck, really where i work they bought some j-d lawn mower- riding type, they bought 6 , 5 have blown engines in less than a year, i dont know how that last one still run's , but that guy baby's it, the others were sold as scrap:D :D

I have a honda cr 80 bored to 100 cc. But honda cars dont stink, they good on gas mileage but the ricers think there street machines.

I don't even like the way the name sounds.. honduhhhhh

LOL! Excellent point!

:)

For what it's worth, Honda makes good ECONOMICAL vehicles. That is about the only thing they are good at. They will get you around for many years to come sucking down a mere 32mpg. But they are by no means street machines. I like to compare them to a golf cart with windshield wipers and headlights. A good throaty sounding AMERICAN V-8, now that is a street machine!!!!

No one mentioned the fact that they make some damn nice street bikes.

I don't ride one, but yes, u are right.

I'd think it would be funny to see a riced out honda FourTrax. SOmeone take this image to photoshop please, I'd like to see a riced out honda FourTrax. It will be our new rice haters club pic-lol
With something under it like "Bet my Honda FourTrax can beat your Honda Civic."

Mustangman, is there a typo in your sig? It says forged steel pistons.

Wow. I never even noticed that. Good eye!

Now correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that a true part? I changed how it was written, was that what was wrong? I'm asking because when I took the motor apart, everyong agreed with me about the steel forged pistons. I think even piston rods too, but not sure.

Pistons are made out of aluminum. It would either be cast aluminum, or forged aluminum. Forged is much stronger. Steel would be way too heavy for high rpms, would require huge balance weights, and would retain too much heat.

Boy, I feel stupid now. I know they are forged, because they are stamped forged under the .60. I will change that soon.

Don't feel stupid, feel smarter!

Ditto.

'77 Honda Z50

...we use this to get around the pits at Cordova, Havana, and Gateway. Runs great and does a wheelie in 1st and into 2nd gear! Good for some laughs :D

I just need to get one of those big wings and some neon lights and I'll be COOL... maybe not.

Re: '77 Honda Z50
 

hehe, thats funny. What size is it? 70? All u need now is a bear with some baggy pants to ride it.

Honda 50... but it's actually 49cc's

I've had people tell me at the track that you can get big bore kits for it to make a 70cc and 100cc out of it. Plus all other types of gizmo's like cams and what not for it... but it's gonna stay stock.

It does look like something out of a circus act when you see a 250lb+ guy riding around on it... ever see a pocket bike (mini-sportbike)? They are like half the size of what's pictured, now those are a riot to see in action! In the NX catalog there's a Suzuki GSX-R mini with a nitrous kit on it. :D

I've never seen any mini bikes. If u can dig up a pic for me, that would be great.

49cc? lmao...my dads chain saw has a bigger engine... :D:D....seriously....

I wouldn't doubt it dude! The Z50 has a top speed of approx. 40 mph... maybe I should talk someone into letting me make a pass on the minibike? See what kinda ET and mph it puts down... any guesses?

I'll post a pic of what I was talking about earlier, the pocket bike with nitrous... :D

...notice the dual pipes are actually dual nitrous tanks! :cool:

:D

OMG!!!

They put nitrous on that?!?!?!?! God, they put it on everything!

I've got a 85 Honda Foretrax 250 atv. I've rolled, jumped, drove that thing like crazy, and it's still running great.:confused: I don't like their cars at all, but my next atv is gonna be another Honda. :D

I ride a VFR750 Honda, and I'm convinced its the best sportbike ever. Now if Ford made one, I'd give it a fair shot.

The cars I am not a fan of, but their bikes are great. Learned to ride on one, and may never ride anything else, well maybe a Harley.

i used to have an old 89 honda elite e 50 moped, that thing was so slow that when i raced old people on bicycles i'd get my *** whooped, from start to finish, i just wanted to put some racing fuel in it so baaad, but never did and just sold it... the end

Re: Honda's are gr8t...
 

WTF are you talking about? :confused: Just because Hondas make non-performance cars that aren't quick from the factory, doesn't mean they suck. They are extremely well made, high quality and reliable. Actually, if you have the money to do it, those little crapboxes also do respond to heavy modifications (although they still sound like a tin can ;)) Honda also make sickeningly fast motorcycles.

So, Honda doesn't really "suck" in any area. In fact, I think the only thing that sucks in this thread is the lynch mob ignorance toward any automobile made overseas. Just because some lame kids ruin their reliable econobox with ricer stuff doesn't mean the entire brand/model sucks. :rolleyes: The only thing worse than a ricer is a blind "import-phobe".

I was gonna say the same thing but here lately every time I get into a friendly debate it goes horribly wrong some how:confused:

My Honda CRX has been good to me, it isnt fast but is is reliable as hell and that is why I bought a Honda.

JMO,
