Honda Deauville

    Help and advice wanted, I am currently riding a Honda CBR600RR which is a wicked fast sports bike as you people know. However I would like to change to a cruiser and can't afford a Pan European so am looking at possibly a Deauville 700 as an alternative. Everything I read suggests that the bike is dull and boring but I'm only interested in reliability and comfort and am a fair weather rider.

    So can any Deauville riders give me the heads up, is it really the poor mans Pan?

    The deauville are a good reliable all rounder,wouldn't be my choice though.
    I've a v-strom 1000 and love it.Great for cruising,load's of power and very flickable for a big bike.
    Couldn't go to far wrong with a GS 1200 either.

    CBR6 to a Deauville is a mental step and you will probably get bored and pi$$ed off rapidly.
    The V-Strom 650, VFR800 or Bandit 600S would b a nice compromise between race rep and easy cruising as they are well respected in both worlds. V-storm more along the lines of a road going GS BMW though.
