Pollik's review of Honda Deauville

“Honda NT650V Deauville Not much to add the good...”

★★★★☆

written by Pollik on 01/01/2006

Good Points
Comfort, reliability, weather protection (with flip up screen and lower shields, handling

Bad Points
Slightly underpowered on long motorway trips, finding a competent dealer to service (in Hereford, at least). But most of all, the seriously badly designed built in panniers...they have an alarming habit of opening when travelling at speed, the catches are temperamental and (now) the locks also don't work...I now do not use them for anything that matters. Helmet lock is pretty much unusable too.

General Comments
Honda NT650V Deauville

Not much to add the good point/bad point listings. If you want a safe predictable ride, if you can put up with the panniers that you would not trust to hold anything you want to be sure of still having at the end of your trip and if you have a reliable trustworthy means of servicing the bike, then it is a bike worth considering. I added handlebar grip heaters and it becomes an all-weather bike (ice and snow is really all that keeps the bike at home).



Would I recommend it? Yes. Would I buy another one? No...but that has more to do with the lack of decent place to get it serviced here in Hereford.
