Hello all. New to the group, joined looking for quality guidance on my first set of replacement tires, thought I'd chime in to this thread.
Picked up a new 2016 C14 7 months ago and absolutely my favorite bike out of the five I have owned, though my previous favorite was my '08 CB250 Nighthawk, for whatever that is worth. The other three were also Hondas, in 500, 700, and 1100cc's, though not owned in that order. Something like 65k miles in the saddle, 4.5k of that on my new connie.
I love this bike though it may kill me, it's too tall and way too much juice. I'm 5'10" with a 30' inseam so unless I have boots with fat soles on, I can't flat foot. Learning to use the electronics on the dash may be a thing but nothing that's really either a pro or a con. Riding this bike is always a pleasure and since I live in Tucson, that's a year round thing for me. First bike I have owned that literally everyone tells me how much they like my bike. I've had strangers roll down their windows at intersections to ask me about my bike and tell me how much they like it. I'm generally not much about being flashy but I feel just a tad cool in the saddle of this bike. At 54 being a run of the mill guy and dad, cool doesn't happen to me very often.
Riding posture is not quite as comfortable as I would prefer, wrist fatigue is something I'd like to address and resolve if ever I take it on a road trip.
The full lowers, heated grips, and electric windshield make riding on cool mornings nothing to worry about, with a little warm clothing on at least, though I haven't seen temps below 30F as our winters are pretty mild.
