2006 Honda Reflex 250 review from United States of America
"Honda does it right!"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Battery.
General comments?
When I saw the Reflex on the showroom floor I was struck by its sleekness. It looks like it's moving while it is standing still. I purchased two Reflexes in May of 2006, one for me and the other for my wife. Mine is a candy blue, while hers is a yellow sport model. We ride these scooters every weekend.
We have put four thousand miles on them and the only thing that I have replaced is the battery on mine. They are very quick and cruise at 65mph with no problem at all.
I've heard of a few modifications that can be done, but have chosen to keep everything mechanical stock, since I've owned a lot of Honda's and they seem to always get it right. That doesn't mean that I haven't dressed it up. I've installed body graphics, wheel stripes, throttle lock cruise control, Givi tall windshield, chrome mirrors, chrome grips, and box with passenger backrest. Both are beautiful scooters.
