She lacked motivation?
I made errors on two of my Hondas. I traded in my 305 Honda Dream on a
Triumph 650....I was young. The other mistake was selling my Honda 600
sedan:

I bet they want a pretty penny for this perfect specimen....I don't think
it was ever on the road!

I got you beat! My *first* motorcycle was... a 250cc Honda Dream. Used and
just carefully broken in when I bought it, and it served me well for a
couple of years. Ugly little bike, but...it sure looked sweet compared to
the BSAs and Triumphs my friends had, because...my Honda started when I
wanted it to...and their bikes sometimes ran and sometimes didn't.

My first was a Honda 305 Superhawk. Drove it all summer and winter in
Illinois, mainly because I couldn't afford a car.

Ahhh...the smooth fendered Honda. The fenders on mine looked like they
came from an early Japanese horror movie.

You've never seen the fenders on a 250cc Honda Dream? The fenders came
with a "crease" in the center and looked like some sort of Japanese
cartoon art.
