Ordered a 2022 model (red) back in August. This bike will be delivered March or April next year. For an old man, the Honda seems to be a little boring compared to the Svartpilen. After having had five Honda cars, I hope to get the same reliability and hope to enjoy the built quality of this bike for years to come.

Hi Also have a 2021 with 800 miles. Agree with most of what you said. Handles very well, great sound, great torque for a 125. Can even pull away in 3rd. I do have a couple of negatives though. I find the gears tricky to get into and out of neutral quite often. I also have a Zontes G1 Scrambler and find the gears far superior. Rear suspension could also be better. That said, on balance a really good bike. Regards

@@stevo987 I think the Zontes is probably the best of the Chinese bikes and build quality is almost on a par with the Japanese ones. Have a look at the review Mark Pulling did on it. Honda will probably hold the price better but if you ACF50 and maintain neither should have issues. My dilemma is if I pass my DAS, do I go for the Street Twin or Moto Guzzi V7 Stone🤔
