Dayum I hate it when people spout that drivel about "soulless" machines.
All machines have character. If you call a machine that is rock solid
dependable (Honda) with fit and finish (Honda), ready parts availability
(Honda) in a network that works (Honda) soulless, then you've got some
problems, like getting stranded (hopefully worst case) coming.
I know I know, diff'rent stokes, opinions are like as*holes, if we didn't
like character we wouldn't have Triumphs, etc. ad nauseum. And posts like
this are just generators of bad karma but I really hate hearing that lack
of character crap to the point I get so mad and can't help it. Save it
for something else please. They all have their own character, whether you
see it or not.
