Yes, I love it!
By (I am an Owner) on May 01, 2010I've owned many smaller scooters, but needed something for interstate travel. After comparing the Yamaha Majesty and the Suzuki Burgman, I bought the Honda Silver Wing. Really, I would have been overjoyed to have any of the three! But in the end, the Silver Wing was my choice, and after getting ... back from a 4500 mi trip, I'm pleased with that choice. The mileage is usually in the high 50s, but that is very dependent on headwind. One annoying trait (which I have not yet had the dealer look at) is a vibration during light throttle takeoff, but it is not a big deal, and maybe it is something that can be fixed. There is also a whine from the final drive gearing, but as far as I am concerned, it is not a problem. The scooter has been 100% reliable, and is excellent on the interstate. I met a lot of admirers, and I have no doubt that it would have been the same if i'd purchased either of the other scooters I mentioned. It's a keeper.

Best ever
By (I am an Owner) on Dec 19, 2009I have had my silvering for 3 months and I love it, it gives better mileage than the prius.
It takes off easily leaving everybody behind, even those kids driving those sport cars hahaha.

Still in the Honeymoon Stage
By (I am an Owner) on Jul 01, 2009Had a 2005 Suzuki Burgman 400 and this 2009 Honda SW is a much better ride. Have put shy of 300 miles on it in the first 4 days I have had it. So far my only complaint is that I can't losen the screws to move the adjustable seat rest back. The sales person told me it was in the middle position and ... I would like to push it back to give myself additional leg room (33" inseam).
