Cool. I thought about trading up the S40 for one of those a couple of years back when I thought I would need more highway riding speeds but never did it (happy that I didn't with the S40 mods I now have and the fact that I do very little highway riding locally).
Does it really feel like a much bigger bike or just the S40 with a little more punch and a bit more top heavy?

You got the S50-S model, they are very hard to come by.
There was one here a little over a year ago for a similar price.
I was sorely tested over that one !
I looked, and looked again, and then looked again !

I am going to call it the ugly duckling or maybe the Dunkard Black Bumper Special.

Love the S50 and a great price, congratulations! Will it keep up with the 883?
That Honda 500 looks good Kenny, I hope you tell us about it. How does the power compare to the S40, how is the weight, the ride etc.

It's been over 115' degrees the last 3 days in a row,.. so I'm up at 5am for a putt...
The S50 is closer to the Savage than a Sporty weight wise,... but I believe it out guns the Sporty in giddieup...
Kenny, I really like those new Hondas... give us a road test...
Enjoy...

Nice!
It looks just like the S83....Am I correct in assuming it's the same bike with a smaller displacement?

The big difference is that the S50 is water cooled...
S40 and S83 are air cooled, although I believe the S83 has a small oil cooler.
.. but both the S50 and S83 are shafty's...
