              @rooster7777: I was being sarcastic, meaning not many motorbike riders with drum brakes survived

              as most are dead from accidents. Maybe not a funny joke as I personally nearly died having

              a motorcycle accident on a Suzuki GSXR 750 with great Disc brakes front and back.

              P.S. Never had a motorbike with drum brakes, old push bike yes.

              My electric scooter has disc and rear internal (maybe electric or drum?) which works well though.

                @ozhunter68: I think you contradicted your own bollocks statement. You tell us you nearly died on an oil cooled suzuki 750 gixxer WITH disc brakes. Either your near demise was caused by some not brake dilemma… or you're an incredibly incompetent rider… or both.

                To say that "most motorbike riders with drum brakes are dead from accidents" can only be treated with contempt. I've lost a few friends and associates in bike accidents, but none were due to having drum brakes.

                I'd say it's clear as day you've never ridden a (motor) bike with drum brakes, given your complete lack of understanding of their use and effectiveness.

                I've had more bikes with cable drum brakes than I have had bikes with 1 or more disk brakes. It's too hard to count the drum brake bikes (more than 11 up to 650s)…. but I've had/ got 7 bikes with at least 1 disk…. ranging from a crap CB360 to TX and XJ750 yams, 750 water bottle, and 750 monster. Many T500 suzukis were notorious for poor front brakes….including all the ones I owned. It's arguable if a better front brake would have avoided either of the 2 notable accidents I had on them…. but their bad front drums were peculiar to them, not repeated in any other front drummer.

                Before the late 70s there were a lot more deaths in australia on bikes (and cars) than after, per head. This was mainly due to selective reduction of, and rigorous enforcement of speed limits, as well as road improvements, and alcohol reduction.

                People with any knowledge of motorcyling history will be aware of the ability of drum brakes to work on bikes. Joe Eastmure's victory in the 1972 castrol 6 hour race on a T350 (315cc) drum braked suzuki twin, defeating every other bike (which all had disk brakes) including big 4 cylinder bikes.

                The single most notable drawback of drum brakes is brake fade from repeated high speed hard braking. Anyone that believes that small capacity scooter like bikes such as the honda navi will suffer after repeated high speed hard braking is dreaming…. the things only do about 80Ks.

                Your comments about drum brakes show as much wisdom as the (profanity) who think drum brakes on the rear of 4 wheel commuters should be outlawed.

      • rooster7777 on 08/08/2024 - 18:42

        There's an interesting test…. I wonder if anyone can find 1 motorbike in history with drum brakes…. that aren't operated by cable?

    • frugalferret on 07/08/2024 - 21:33
      +7

      Also a lot cheaper to service and maintain than e-bikes and pedal pushbikes.

      Motorcycle/scooter chains, brake pads, tyres and other high wear parts last 5-10x more Kilometers than a pushbikes counterpart.

      Rego, insurance, fuel and service costs for my small capacity motorcycle cost less than a few sets of pads, brake blades, a couple of chains, cassette, 4 tyres, a fork overhaul, and a couple of services each year.

      • CaptainJack on 08/08/2024 - 08:47
        +2

        How much would you spend on fuel in a year? Is that riding most days or more of a weekender? Just wondering.

        I would guess a pushie is still cheaper, 2.5k is quite a lot really. 1k gets you something half decent. Chains and pads aren't that much. Not sure if you're counting safety gear for a motorbike but isn't that a couple grand?

        • frugalferret on 08/08/2024 - 18:28
          +2

          I've done 11,800 km on the motorbike in 2 years. I change the oil myself every 2,000km and get a mechanic to service it every 6k. So far have spent $405 on fuel, $150 on a service, $60 on 4L of oil. $80 on a new chain and $50 on a new rear tyre. Will need another $150 service soon.

          Thats $895 for 11,800km of riding. Riding gear ~$350 for helmet and $400 for jacket, pants and gloves.

          My MTB cost more than my motorbike to purchase. Pads, chains, cassettes, and tyres wear out much quicker. Parts are more expensive. Services (fork and rear shock) are very expensive. Major services costs more than $1000 and that's with me supplying parts, and doing all the maintenance and small services myself. One MTB event in the wet can wear through several sets of pads in a day, and totally ruin the brake calipers and drive train and cost over a grand to repair/replace parts.

          I'd be spending at least $1000 to maintain my MTB every 5,000km. Helmet $200, Shoes $150

          • CaptainJack on 08/08/2024 - 19:40

            @frugalferret: That's pretty good for the motorbike. My mate got his motorbike helmet for $800 I think (several years ago) so I was thinking the gear would cost a lot more. I might remember incorrectly or he was the victim of a pushy sales man.

            I spend a fair bit less on my bike but it is a gravel bike so less to go wrong and I guess gets an easier life than your mtb. I try to do the easier maintenance myself as I do somewhat remote trips and it's good to have the skills if something goes wrong (but sometimes I get lazy and its just easier to pay the professionals). Probably no more than 400-500 a year or so on maintenance but I don't really keep track. I did spend a bit on bike packing gear but nothing crazy and not sure if that counts as a bike cost.

            Anyway happy riding!

        It's perfect for the city. Ride like you're invisible (not invincible), and never assume that other vehicles have seen you.

        Filleting your way to the front of the queue in slow moving out stopped traffic minimises chances of you from being sandwiched by distracted drivers.

        City riding doesn't require high powered bikes to distance yourself from dangerous situations. Ride smart.

        Maybe cycling. On a non-electric bicycle will help with your use case

        Thank you for the suggestion. I've won a few national jiu jitsu titles in recent years so while I am quite heavy compared to most people, I'm also capable of walking long distances without going into cardiac arrest, and probably have a similar BF percentage to you.

          Gezuz, if you really aren't just a fat c**t (no offence meant here) and actually are stacked like you claim, you must be like 6ft 8 or something to be 140kg and muscle.

    Verdict is in - Hondas are great bikes but go for something else, even if you think it’s a good city runabout

      I looked at that review. The reviewer is a fool.
      I can't be stuffed looking at any other videos he's done… but I can understand why after 1 year he's only got 3K subscribers.

    Would love one of these, but I live rural and have to take a 100km/h highway to get anywhere. As it is, my SRV250 sits at 8000rpm just to keep up with traffic, which is um… uncomfortable.

    'Wheel Size Front:- 304.8 mm, Rear:- 254 mm' - https://www.bikedekho.com/honda/navi/specifications

    this looks like what I call a 'monkey bike' - a tiny thing with tiny wheels you look like a circus monkey perched on top of

    for a start the tiny wheels are gonna feel every tiny bump on the road.

      10 and 12 inch wheels. Similar to the 10inch of every vespa/ lambretta/ rabbit and other motor scooter of yesteryear. At least the roads tend to be a lot better now…. and it does have suspension.

    Also just spotted that this is carb and not even EFI….had thought they'd just take the grom engine and pop a CVT on it or just re-use one of the many scooter-based variants of their existing OHC EFI engine.

    • rooster7777 on 08/08/2024 - 16:17

      I'd say they've designed it to sell at a low price. What advantages would you expect if they added on EFI…. a few percent less fuel consumption for some more bucks?

        From someone who has had to deal with blocked jets on carbs over the years Id say EFI is a very good upgrade to have. Can adjust fueling to suit the environment, no manual choke, good mileage, easy starts (especially when hot), less maintenance to name a few.

        But yeh, agree they've done this to a price point.

        • rooster7777 on 09/08/2024 - 14:26

          Interesting comparison…. I haven't had much trouble with carbys… and never had to buy an new one because the old one crapped itself on the side of the road. The only blockage problem I've had over many miles and a few Ks is when a good friend felt the need to piss in the tank of an old bsa. Karma is such a powerful effect.
          Throttle cable synchronisation… yep, that can be a bit of work on a multi. A manual choke was never a problem for me.

    Ah, the anecdotes of a lifetime …

    Last time I rode a mini-motorbike like this I had to carry a chain and padlock with me everywhere, because locking it wasn't enough, anyone could just pick it up and walk off with it. I had to attach it to something to make sure it'd still be there when I got back. And I had to ride up onto the footpath and press the pedestrian button at some intersections, because it didn't have enough metal in it to trip the sensor in the road that detected whether a vehicle was waiting.
