Honda Lead


0 - 70 km in about 45 seconds depending on the incline or decline.  This baby can move.  It's slow on acceleration but you can't beat the face rippling top end.  Not only is it fast but you also look good on this beast.  89 thundering cc's under your butt, who can argue with that!  

Yes, It's the equivalent to a Harley Davidson out here.  What makes this monster unique is the shopping basket in the front, carry all on the back and wind visor.  With a lockable glove compartment in the front for your valuables, it's a sure winner.  You just can't beat it for it's stylish look, light handling and firm grip on the road, (compared to a skate board). This bike really turns heads.  

I haven't managed to wheelie it yet but I have managed to scrape the kick stand, which was orgasmic.  I had the biggest smile on my face for days.  Mr. Yakamoto and I plan to go traveling around Kyshu on it on our next warm break.  We are both looking forward to converting this gem from a daily commuter jet to a travel demon.  We are taking no prisoners!
