Bakuon!! has started so now it's time to lock in your favourite Japanese big four manufacturer!

Honda: Ever reliable and most famous.
Kawasaki: Accepting your kidney for a Ninja.
Suzuki: Hunting down the perfect Katana.
Yamaha: Not sure if buying a bike or piano.

I guess my BMW doesnt count here :/

But if I would have to choose I would pick Yamaha - its the only one sold in my town XD everything else is like 100km away.

I rode Yamaha, so there's my pick. Dunno why they pick the dirtbike for the anime, I mean, sure they are pioneers in that field, but really it's not that practical for commuting and even less believeable than that Ducati.

While I also like Suzuki, they tends to make cheap 'downgrade' version of their bikes (like expounded in episode 2) that only win for it's looks but laughable in performance compared to others on the same price range. Their flagship however is quite a beasts.

what i talking is cheap making motor, not high class. they are showing how they actually produce cycle for mass. it's also showing their marks for many people for generations. note that it's special in my country anyways. my country is identic with motorcycle.

> honda: cheap, easy to maintance, economical.

> kawasaki: pricy, easy to maintance, but not economical.

> suzuki: pricy, easy to maintance, economical.

> yamaha: cheap, hard to maintance, economical.


most of people in my home town usually prefer honda. but my family prefer yamaha. so yamaha got my vote.

I've owned two brands of cycles; Honda and Yamaha. Both were very good bikes.

I learned on a Honda Enduro 150. Since lost count of how many time I dropped it. Drove it without oil once and and seized the engine. I rebuilt it and it ran like a champ for long after.

Any problems I've have were entirely my fault for neglect.

My bike experience from learning to today is Yamaha, Suzuki, Yamaha, and finally Honda. Just mass produced ones you usually find in South East Asia. Nowadays I mainly drive matics.

The series might be over now but the Japanese big four wars will never end!

I hope you all enjoyed Bakuon as much as I did. I got to learn a little bit about a world i'm unfamiliar with and came out with a Yamaha addiction.

I'll go with Suzuki. I wish they would have other brands of bikes, maybe a Harley or Triumph if Bakuon! adds another season or two.
I saw a Triumph motorcycle walking down the street a while ago, I haven't seen one of those in years.

I love how solid and reliable Honda is (Gomen ne, Rin-chan). I have both a 2020 Grom and a 2019 CRF 250L Rally. Absolutely solid bikes. This show does represent their manufacturers well though... while Honda is very reliable and fun, it's not as flashy as other options; It's the safe option, like the MC. My next bike will be a Suzuki Hayabusa, or if they ever come back to North America I'll do Rin justice and get a Katana.
