The Honda Navi was just released earlier this year, but I’m already seeing TONS of them hitting the used market. So what’s the deal- why are SO many Navi owners getting rid of their bikes? Do they regret their purchase? Should I regret MINE?!
Personally, I think it all comes down to being informed. So today I’m giving you the top things I LOVE about my 2022 Honda Navi and the top things I HATE about the new bike. Then I’ll tell you whether or not all of these Honda Navi problems have given me buyer’s remorse.
If you have a Navi yourself, let me know what your top pros and cons are in the comments!

It's a much better idea - depending on your physical size - to get something between 300-600 cc, or even go the used market and get an older 250 cc, cause most people do drop the bike at some point, or have minor accidents, and you wouldn't want to do that to a 10k+ bike.

I was worried about everyone else around me not seeing me and hitting me. So because of that I got rid of it. If it wasn't because of my own thoughts and doubts I would still have it.

@supericeman1 8 месяцев назад

I was hooked on the mini moto scene, and looked heavily into the Navi as my first bike, I went to the dealership, the salesman had the 23 Navi and the 24 Grom side by side. I picked the Grom over the Navi the biggest deciding factor I already had a 2016 Honda metropolitan scooter, I didn't want another bike that's basically like my moped, if I was to take the msf to get my endorsement, I'll need to learn to shift anyways (i passed!). The pros to the Grom has a bigger fuel tank to me it's a plus, the quicker acceleration, the digital dash (also the white light on the dash telling you when to shift), the negatives, it takes a bit finessing to shift into Neutral, lack of storage, and maybe the price, it's double that of the Navi. The Navi, the pros, storage, similar top speed to the Grom, you don't have to shift, the Negatives, not as quick accelerating as the Grom, the bike feels cheaply made compared to the Grom i.e. you can tell looking at the plastic panels, the basic gauge compared to grom's digital one, etc and it felt like a moped all dressed up in motorcycle clothes, and the out the door price of the Navi depending where you live can be almost as msrp or more to a new Grom, my 24 Blue Rasperry Grom's otd price was $3900, not bad at all!

That Old dude was just too much , I got a Navi for my daughter, and I ended up riding it more than her , it’s a blast ! Your review of the Navi was spot on , I got it it over 50 mph, but felt slightly unstable at that speed with tiny tires . Gas mileage falls short , usually ride it pinned , so around 60-65 miles have to go to reserve tank . No regrets here , good bang for the buck .

Got one in Toronto at MSRP for teenage son. Perfect starter bike. For many, the price is attractive for a new Honda with warranty, Honda service network etc. If this is your budget and you know the bike's limitations, the value is amazing. As for the old tech, had to be or it would be too close in price to Grom or competition. Some benefits are low maintenance (anyone ever need to service their drum brakes?) Proven engine that Honda has made millions of over many years. Oil and air filter are only regular service. Sure it's carbed but no computer chips; perfect SHTF machine. Also great for the teen to wrench on. He already liked tinkering with small engines like lawn mowers etc so carbed engines are what he already knows. Everything is serviceable by it's owner and parts are easily obtainable. Service manuals easily found online (since it was made/sold in India for years). These could run for decades if cared for. Since manufacturing has been moved to Mexico, I was also happy to purchase a bike that was at least made on this continent and not overseas.

As a uni student in a different country, rather than spending $200 per month on public transport I could use this to get around. My total commute would be 30 mins instead of 2 hours. No problems with parking and I can go to the gym, do grocery shopping easily and also explore the city. Convenience and safety is important, speed and pickup not so much. Looks like enough speed to get out of trouble

Back around fall of 2021 I found out about the Navi. I used to ride around on an old beat up Honda ct-70/Trail 70 sometimes as a kid. That thing was a a ton of fun. I'm not as knowledgeable with bikes as I am with cars and didn't even know they still made something street legal that size. I typically don't see anything that small except conventional scooters here in Southeast Michigan. Looking into the Navi, I found out about the Grom. I ended up putting a deposit on the Grom before Christmas and got it the day before the following Easter. It was like $4400 after fees/plates/tax. I chose the Grom over the Navi due to being a manual transmission, bigger fuel injected engine, disc brakes, modern electrics/dash/gauges, and overall better build quality/look. The gas mileage is better too. I get between 125-155 mpg which has been better than expected and worth it with these crazy gas prices! The front suspension on the Grom isn't great either. One thing I've noticed though- Dogs really *HATE* it!🤣

Navis would be great at the MSRP. The problem is, in this market ALL motorcycles are going to have the dealers passing on shipping/setup fees, in addition to whatever OEM markups exist across all the dealerships. There are always deals to be had, but it depends on a specific dealer getting offloaded with way more bikes than there's a market for in their area.

@godw1ll99 11 месяцев назад

well for one inflation alone almost makes up for the price difference since it was available in india in like 2016 but the reason it stopped selling in india and was discontinued was because of government regulations. the bike is still made in mexico then imported to the u.s so the cost of import is also added in to the price. the bike has also seen some minor upgrades since its debut in india such as a fuel gauge. "Along with a new BS-IV compliant motor, the Navi gets cosmetic updates like body coloured headlamp cover, mirrors, a rear grab rail and tubeless tyres. The single side mounted rear shock absorber is also painted red. Another important update is the new instrument console that gets a fuel gauge." considering all of that the price increase makes perfect sense.

@raulgerardoc.1250 Год назад

I think the issue is people being mislead on to what the Navi is. It's not a motorcycle. It's a scooter dressed up as one. It's not a fancy ride, it's a sub $2000 mode of transportation. You get the Navi as either a fun secondary ride or as a cheap, I can't afford anything else.

If someone’s tight on money, they can grab this for super cheap, get great gas mileage, and then when they’re ready for a “real” motorcycle, Honda hopefully already has them locked in with brand loyalty.

Honda's small engines are great and reliable. It's not a Chinese carbed engine.

@ronsmith7262 Год назад

Here’s my thoughts on the Navi. I have just over 3k miles now and it runs gud no complaints on that except for the brakes. The real problem is the gas mileage it comes in half the mpg of the grom and pcx and if u look at only this in money the extra money in gas kills this thing within a yr the wasted money would have paid for a pcx or a grom. So imo do not buy this machine and let it die like India did because it’s not worth having unless u only drive 100 miles a year

@ellaandrioaie5731 Год назад

In Canada in many provinces the insurance for motorcycles under 110cc (like Navi) is half of those over 110cc (like Grom) so one saves a lot of money right there. I guess it's the same in US in some states (I may be wrong).

I rode neither Grom or Navi and I am sure Grom rides better, but I sat on both and Navi is definitely more roomy and comfortable, I especially like its upright riding position, seat, geometry, but of course, to each their own. Also maintenance is very cheap and easy to perform, included the dreaded valve adjustments. Its simplicity doesn't offer much performance but it has advantages as well.

@godw1ll99 11 месяцев назад

problem is its only got a 1 gallon tank so even if it got a good 80mpg that still doesnt get you very far. according to google the navi is estimated to get a bit over 70mpg so either google is lying or you are more upset over the capacity not the mpg. sure the grom does get double which is insane but as far as motorcycles go 70+ mpg is plenty respectable. you are absolutely right though, if you are averaging 10k miles per year on the bike then yea the gas savings from the grom would be the difference in price between the navi and the grom.

I bought my Navi (black) about a month and a half ago and I absolutely love it. Is it perfect? No. Would I like a little more modern technology and maybe LED lights on it. Sure. But for something that cost me $2200 out the door I guess I shouldn't expect all of the bells and whistles. It's a lot of fun to ride and I'm not a speed demon. I've seen a lot of reviews on the Navi and all they care about is going fast. Why are you getting a Navi if you want to go really fast? For me, it's fast enough and perfect for driving around the area I live in (little beach town). I also have a Honda Elite Scooter and was thinking of keeping it but I find myself taking the Navi out 9 times out of 10. I just figure there is no point in keeping both. I find it's more fun on the Navi and it also looks cooler.

that is how it is with any bike so its easier to compare value by just comparing msrp. the grom is still costs about the same over the navi after all of the markups so the comparison is still valid. anyone that has been to a dealer before, motorcycle or vehicle, understands the msrp is not the final cost. obviously the dealer needs to make money so they pass the freight costs, taxes, registration and their time to process these things on to you. i was told my out the door price if i were to buy it in full and handle registration on my own would be about $2400.

The Navi has a 0.9 gallon tank and a mpg of 132.6 so not bad other than it having a carburetor 👍 best to use unleaded Ethanol for the bike it has some protection against the engine sputtering also I bought a new carburetor which is why I said a 132.5 mpg difference also major speed difference I can get a top speed of 62 mph switched the throttle and the best thing I found out is that you have to fill it up higher than the average of 0.756 I filled it up to 0.923 and major difference also I changed the brakes to hydraulic and made the speedometer LED and added front suspension also the heavier you are the slower the acceleration is so if you wanna hit 62 mph be 165-175 lbs and you’ll get that difference with the government tax and fees plus the bike and all the mods it costed me $3,347 so this can be a nice little moped/scooter if you put the work in.

I live in Germany, lots of small streets and back roads. 110-125cc is more than enough in most cases. Even the 50cc aren't so bad for city cruising where speed limits are roughly 30mph/50kmh.
