Welcome, and thanks for welcoming others! I am a big Honda fan, treasure my
'87 CRX, 62.9 best mpg. so far; only mods: pass seat out, tires bumped up, and nut adjusted behind the wheel.

Generally, prefer Honda motorcycles as well.

Don't be afraid to bump tire psi at least 7 beyond max sidewall rating.
That might be a good stopping point to gauge desired ride quality, and shouldn't
create faster wear.

Just keep the extra psi in mind if you are used to flying around corners in the rain.
Obviously, you wouldn't want to be going 10/10ths there!

Nice rides you have/have had!
