Why you should AVOID the Honda Navi & Three Better Options for New Riders
I think the Honda Navi is a well made machine. I also think the use case for this bike is fundamentally flawed for traveling on American roads.

    Motorcycles: Engine is somewhere in the middle of the frame. Scooters: Engine is toward the back near the rear wheel. Mopeds: Is a type of motorized pedal bike. Having a clutch or not having one doesn't have anything to do with it's classification.

    I got a Navi as my first vehicle about 8 months ago. At first it was fun, riding around and actually feeling the wind but all of the excitement wore off pretty quick and reality set in. Its slow, small, and overall i dont feel safe. A couple of months into me owning it, i wrecked for the first time. It was nothing major but definitely jarring. Since then, ive had someone brake check me which sent me sliding down the road, overall unharmed enough to ride home (not smart or safe, i would not recommend). Ive had multiple people almost t-bone me because they couldn't see me so i put on a different exhaust that was louder in hopes of being seen better, which didnt work. Ive had more people than i can even remember pass me on roads with 55 speed limits, almost hitting me pretty much every single time. Ive ran over very small things in the road that almost threw me off. And the absolute worst part is the wind. Wether its just a slightly aggressive breeze or even traffic on the other side of the road, that bike does NOT want to stay upright if there is any wind at all. I weigh roughly 135 lbs and im about 5'11 so i thought itd be an easy bike to ride but i hadnt considered the size as an issue which was a HUGE mistake. If you really do plan to get one, be sure to factor in the fact that it is small. Motorcycles are already hard to see but a Navi is also quiet, slow, and the acceleration is not what even i (as a person who learned everything on this bike and i have never been on another) would consider to be remotely safe. You will have to REALLY think about every inch that you make that bike go because, even just a larger crack in the road, can completely throw you off. Ive drove past semi trucks that, just the wind from them, have pushed me all the way to the edge of my lane and almost off the road completely. My general point is that, if you wnat one, make sure you have another vehicle. Either to drive yourself or driving near you. Dogs will not be afraid of this quiet, slow bike and no one on the road will really respect you the way they should.

    Up to 4 minutes... and lots of negative attitude without any valid points. (yes, all vehicles have ORC on road costs before you ride them away). Then he's complaining you can't start the bike with the kickstand down ...with the "twist and go" throttle. I don't know where this boofhead has been, but a number of the 20+ bikes I've owned/ still own have that feature.... and I've seen many boofheads on bikes without the feature ride off with the stand down, with unfortunate consequences. I'm not going to listen to any more... once he said something stupid like that, he's lost me.

    1½" (38mm) sag is nowhere near what it should be. Between 25 and 33% is ballpark. I prefer closer to 33. KTM state that with a 75-85kg rider, sag should be 80mm (around 3").

    “Are you gonna wear gear in may when it’s hot?” Dude what are you talking about I always do and I live in Vegas. 121 two days ago. No matter the bike, as a motorcycle rider as you called yourself you should know all this. All your points got me wondering what the hell you are talking about. “If you are a rider this machine is safe, If like me you worry about helmet hair…” you aren’t a rider then the machine is not calling you to squid. You are not acting like ANY bike can you take you out as you should. Even your opinion on scooters and bikes made no sense. Get an e-bike for 3500 and it tells you to not wear a helmet? That’s your feelings not facts. Every damn motorized vehicle I know has a WEAR PROTECTIVE GEAR sticker somewhere😂

    I bought a Navi last year to be a campground and city cruiser, and it works well for that. I didn’t want a 50cc such as a Ruckus because of the 35 MPH top speed feeling too slow to be safe. I already have two full size motorcycles, and I agree it’s not a replacement for one. Keep it on 45 MPH and below roads and the Navi is fun. Owning the Navi led me to want a larger scooter, and I bought a PCX this year. It’s more useful for commuting to work on faster roads and longer rides, and is more comfortable as well. I love and ride the PCX so often that I’m considering selling my Navi.
