Honda Dominator
Re: Honda Dominator
I had a good old NX650! A red one. Bleeding good old thing it was too! Went everywhere on it. It plodded along very nicely all day long. Not the quickest thing on the planet and hard to wheelie but I wouldn't hesitate to have another. Go for it!
Re: Honda Dominator
I've had two Dommies and I wouldn't hesitate to have another; if I was in the market for another single.
Reliable as any other Big H,, the only down side for me was the saddles get a bit uncomfortable after a good long ride, apart from that I couldn't fault them.

Re: Honda Dominator
a pal of mine has just sold a low miles mint bike (7000 miles) he had a high screen on it and it helped no end on long runs and he loved it , i would say it was on par with my 09 tenere , he never had a problem with at all , he only sold it as he was short of cash due to lack of work or he wouldnt have sold it , was fine on fuel and good off road
,he had afew nice touches, crash bars, alloy sump guard, and small alloy panniers from trax , so somebody got a good bike .

Re: Honda Dominator
top end problems are very common on dommies, caused usually by the lack of maintenance - low oil level. and the repair is costly.
apart from that, a good, cheap, workhorse
