The local honda powerhouse has a 1995 1500 with all the bells and whistles you can imagine, it has just under 100k on it. its the fully loaded with about every option you can imagine.
my 1100 is doing me just fine but i want a bike with more oomph on the highway/interstate and the 1100 is lacking that
i dont know much about the 1500's other than what i've picked up on here alittle as i go along
is it worth it they are asking 6200 for it a fair price i think its in flawless condition one owner all highway hes gone alll over the country on it it even has the tulsa tall windshield hope i worded that correctly
i just need a little input on it
i know its alot heavier than my 1100 obviously
how is the reliability
the fuel economy
maintainance is the biggest i probably wont do much to this because its so advanced with the electronics than my 1980
is it worth it to go to that i dont think i'll do cross country trips or anything like that
my dad and i keep it short about 200 to 400 mile trips the 1980 gl 1100 interstate modle is fine just alittle poochy on the power but then again im comparing that to his harleys...... no match i guess
i rode the 1500 its got the power but its very heavy and would be alittle trouble around town and with all the road construction almost dangerous if you tried going down some of the bad roads i guess
i appreciate the input
thanks
