Just bought a 2004 Honda Reflex for $1600 today with only 1700 miles on it!
Great find!
I have a 2003 Honda reflex with only 700 miles for sale
@@JorgeGarcia-WS6 where do you live at? I’m in California.
@@karlfonner7589 I'm in south Texas
I live in south Texas
I'm 6'2 at 265lbs I have a 2003 Reflex 250 with 8200 miles on odometer. it will top out at 70 on the interstate and gets 62mpg. I do live in Cheyenne WY and ride it to Denver a couple times a year. Have recently replaced the clutch, Front fork seals, and tires. Going on a trip next month to Yellowstone which should be fun.
I have a stock 03 Reflex and i will not add any mods to mine. It has just over 5k, looks and runs like new. I had mine up to 80 mph and that was fast enough for me. I´ve owned all types, sizes, brands of bikes in my life, and my Reflex is my favorite to ride. It is so comfortable to ride, has plenty of storage space, plenty of power, and i am just crazy about it. So, no mods needed for my Reflex!!
Sometimes no mods are the BEST mods!
Same here! But if I were to do replace them someday I would go that route. I have had the Elite 150, and 250, and my latest is the Reflex 250 2003 model. I bought it summer of 2019, and I said 2020 is going to be a great year for riding! I jinx myself when I said it. I have a Givi 42l trekker case in the rear that gives me enough space to do grocery shopping. I have a custom bag for the case so I never go over the limits of the case. It's been a great city bike. I have done all the works on my other bike, and the Reflex I have taken it to the shop, because it is harder to get to the engine. So far I have done the gear and oil change and filter and replace belts and spark plugs. Even changing the tires is harder, so I miss that ease of self repair.
I find that the elite 250 is pretty much on par with the Reflex 250 in HWY riding. Reflex is faster, but there is a bit of wind shuttling between the body of the Reflex at around 65mph, where as the elite 250 is a like a brick but less shuttling of the wind. But it moves like a heavy hammer. I suspect that it is my trekker top case causing it.
I'm originally from Michigan and been there a year ago, and I would not be happy dodging so many potholes. It has change so much in 15 years. However with the PNW heatwave we had, many of the roads buckled from the 115 degree heat.
Just got my 2007 Honda Reflex Special Edition on the Rosd a week ago ... bought it 3 weeks ago ...... SILVER , GIVI TRUNK , NEW CLUTCH , 2,080 MILES ..... 2 ND OWNER ...... RIDES LIKE A DREAM ....!!!! MY FAVROITE SCOOTER BEFORE WAS ALWAYS TGE HONDA ELITE ..... ESPICALLY THE 150 WITH THE POP OUT HEAD LIGHT ... I USE TO BUY AND SELL ALL ELITES MAINLY 80 CC &150 CC MY FIRST WAS THE 1984CC I BOUGHT FOR $50 AND SOLD IT FOR $400 WAS JUNKY BUT THAT GOT ME STARTED BUYING AND SELLING ABOUT 250-300 OF THEM BETWEEN 2007-2009 AVRAGE PRICE $125 GOT THEM BETWEEN $80 - $150 EVEN HAD SOME 50CC AND A FEW 250CC
BUT YEA I LOVE HAVING THE LAST YEAR MADE OF THE REFLEX OR ANY MODEL SO ALL THE KINKS CAN BE WORKED OUT .... LOTS OF ROOM ... LOVE THE ABS BREAKS ( WAS SUPRISED ABOUT THAT ... THINK I MIGHT NEED SOME NEW BREAKS IN A FEW MONTHS OR SO ??? OR JUST NOT USE TO THE BREAKS ON THEM WITH THAT MUCH WEIGHT OR MAYBE SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE ADJUSTED ???
BUT LIVE THE SILVER COLOR ... I PAID $2800 FOR THE 2007 WITH 2,000 MILES ON IT .... HITS ABOUT 80 MPH WICH IS GREAT FOR ME WOULD BE NICE IF IT HAD A LITTLE MORE ACCELERATION AT THE LIKE 35 - 45 MPH HOUR RANGE ....??? FROM TAKE OFF GREAT .... BUT IDK I DONT MIND IT MY FATHER SAID HE DID SOME RESEARCH AND THAT WAS ONE THING PEOPLE COMPLAINED ABOUT A BIT .... BUT NO BIGGIE ...I LIVE .... IT HAS A PARKING BREAK AWSOME

I just laid down my reflex today. Messed myself up pretty good but the bike is in great condition, just needs some touch up paint and sanding on the body. I was on the highway way luckily getting off so I was only going about 25 mph
Lucky you only doing 25mph he said that he was doing 82mph. and he dosent were gloves and he rides with shorts
Look like a good scooter. I own a 2005 bergman 650 and 1998 yp250 majesty. Also brought a pcx150 honda 2016 as like them.
Like the video. I have a 2001 reflex. I absolutely love it. I want some more power though. What website/ business sells aftermarket performance parts?
I have the 2001 Honda reflex and it's a blast to ride. I paid 1800 for mine. I'm putting new tires on it had the carburetor gone through. You hit that throttle she will get up and go as much as you need it I've had mine two around 78 and that was fast enough for me. She's plenty comfortable.
Where did you get the back rest, or did he come on the bike when you brought it?
Mine has over 40,000 and running very good !!
Thanks for the video (especially considering that its been sold already) love you guys!!!
Sold meaning customer verbally committed to buying it, we don’t ride the bikes once they sold (outside of taking them for gas) but we do these videos for all the great people on UA-cam looking for reviews on different scoots/bikes/etc. thank you for watching and commenting! Maybe we will see you on another video 😎
Thanks for the ride, where to find Big Ruckus cvt upgrade?
I dont like real tall windscreens either, but would like a little more height like yours.
What kind is yours and do you get any head buffeting?
Thanks for the great video!
I couldn't find a Yamaha XMAX 300, and bought a 2006 Reflex with under 2000 miles for $2000.
I like it.
Yes I got a reflex and very interested in the highway pegs
Yes id like to get high way foot pegs.
Just where and how would I install them
I like it
As I was watching this video I’m telling myself these are Pennsylvania roads and they seem familiar when you said it made me laugh lol
I own this motorcycle and I love it...
I have the honda forza, great bike
The Forza are super capable machines
Hi, please how did you raise the seat back rest? Do you have any video on how to raisw that back rest?
You had it up to 82 mph on the speedo? Or Gps phone indicated? The reason I ask is on my Reflex 2001 stock it will say 80mph on the speedometer, but the gps is like 72-73. Bit of a variance. Reflex is a great fun scooter
This looks like a good maxi-scooter, but I would prefer the Helix mainly because of its comfort. You can ride the Helix all day and be comfortable. Not quite so much with this one. But then the Helix is the Barcalounger on wheels.
I do like the helix but I’d take the performance of reflex
I have never owned or ridden a Honda Reflex, but I have owned, and ridden 2 Honda Helix Scoots, and for Scoots, I will not ride anything else other than a Honda Helix. They are just so comfortable. You can ride them at 70+ mph all day long, and park in the evening, and step off, without being the least bit tired, and step right back on, and ride all night long. It's like sitting in lazy boy recliner chair, with 2 wheels, a set of handlebars, and a 250 cc engine, with a built in storage trunk. Can you ride like that on your Honda Reflex ? I kinda doubt it.
6’1”@ 290lbs (if I heard correctly) and 82mph? That’s great for just a 250! I’m 6'3”@ 250lbs and looking at city use. Lighter rollers would likely make it a neck snapper for me! Highway pegs would be considered, if the 2005 I’m looking at, is worth buying!
Love mine, big ruckus upgrade maybe in the future. I am very interested in the hiway pegs.
Big ruckus face b and rollers I meant to say. Not getting a big ruk scoot.
Yeah the mod makes for a potent reflex!
@@SiegfriedsMotorwerx I have this in a clone, will the mod work as well and what does it consist of?? its a Jonway sl250 it has the helix ch250 clone engine i have gotten it up to (GPS) 71mph with some 25g sliders but that is it and that is with a uni filter mod and exhaust upgrade :-/
INterested in the Highway pegs for the Reflex and the Genuine Royal line.. What ya got?
Big windshield and backrest-must be a comfy ride-built for hwy.
I just took my first ride on one...buying it in thirds for 1800 w less that 10k miles.
Compared to the Helix and the Forza witch do you think is better?
How would you say it stacks up to the Suzuki Burgman 200? They're nearly identical in power.
I bought a used Reflex, but it doesn't have that rear rack.
I guess it's the Sport version.
I need a rear rack, stock, or aftermarket.
Any suggestions?
You have tottaly forgotten about Honda Foresight (FES250).. It was produced before Reflex between 1998-2008 and Reflex used Honda Foresigh Engine. Also Reflex was named as Reflex in USA, but it was called as Forza for the rest of the world.
Honda Foresight was a contemporary refinement over Honda Helix and Yamaha Majesty was built to compete with Foresight with slightly better design specs. Honda Reflex (Forza) was built to answer back to Yamaha Majesty. This is how I remember.
I’m interested in the highway pegs for my 2007 Reflex
I just bought one today🤙🏾
Well, I have a 2002 honda reflex I got it for 200 bucks!!! it was sitting for 5 years and I just got it running again. I must say that I love this bike!!! I would like to do the upgrade whatever I can do to get a little more out of it. not getting the top speed it's doing about 40 right now
Darryl Austin have you checked into the cvt at all?
@@SiegfriedsMotorwerx yes it looks good
Hmmm, you should be seeing speeds closer to 65 easily
I did get a new belt and rollers but I didn't put them on
Get those on there and while your doing the belt take a peek at your clutch pads too
found a 2002 that needs a carb cleaning and a new battery for 800$, should i go for it or no?
You don't see those in Europe. Lovely machine. Nicer that a Forza IMO.
I’ve seen a 2015 Honda reflex 250 for 2500 with 17,000 miles on it. What do you think?
Didn't even know you could swap the clutch and variator
Sorry I just of missed it what kinda mileage does it get ? Thanks
If you would have kept going and yielded right, what do you think your speed would have been at the top of the mountain? Your 290, I'm 350 and want to make sure I have enough power for hills. My 125 eliminator left much to be desired lol
I'm about 200 lbs..... How fast would it run with me on there no modifications done to it
@@robertcperry4377 top speed on flat ground is 52 miles an hour
Purchased a '06 reflex last month for 1300 bucks myself, and I'm definitely planning on doing a cvt upgrade. Which would you recommend, the Big Ruckus or Malossi aftermarket bits? And those highway pegs sound sweet, I'd definitely buy a pair.
Big ruckus Cvt mod for the reflex for sure. Someday we will get a set of highway pegs developed
How many miles did it have when you bought it?
@@kylekramer1260 around 23,000 miles if I recall.
I'd also like a pair for my 2001 reflex. I'm 6 ft 3 so they would be greatly appreciated.
How may I get the highway pegs for my 07 reflex sport.
Why doesn't Honda put the 250cc engine in the Super Cub?
Do a ride test on a Burgman 200
I like all scooters.. helix reflex forza.. i have a yamaha morphous.. same idea just a yamaha
Do you have highway pegs for an 04 Metro?
Lmfao when he heard the bike riding by 👀
I'm interested in some pegs? I have a 04 Reflex
I need someone to tell me everything I need to buy and a good place to do so to do this mod pls
hey man, sorry dumb question but i've been looking and cant find which oil to put fill mine with. any suggestions?
I use Amsoil Formula 4 stroke synthetic scooter oil in my Honda Reflex.
What is exactly that u need to get to put on the big rokus kit
The stock CVT components from a big ruckus
I'm very interested in getting a scooter I can't afford much I'm thinking second hand and I'm going to follow you to see what you have
Would it last driving 62 miles twice a day n I weigh 350?
A big ruckus upgrade doable for average people.
I just bought a2007 honda reflex for 750.00 only 1,700 miles from my boss
That is a STEAL! Nice find
Wow
How does the Big Rukus CVT Mod effect bottom end or take off?
It improved the bike on the low end and top side
@@SiegfriedsMotorwerx Thanks, I’m thinking about doing that. My 07 Reflex takes off good but it is turning a lot of rpm at 65 & 70mph
@@doug3805 no problem
Do it! This was the best reflex I’ve ridden
how to adjust the seat ?
I’m looking at buying a 2003 model with 26 k miles for $1,200 is it worth it?
I'm here in Michigan as well and can't find the helix or reflex for sale anywhere
These are tough ones to find, sometimes they are way to expensive and other times they are crazy cheap, probably two of the most varying priced scooters . Good luck hunting!
Yo I'm from Michigan in traverse city county do you know if you need a license for these I was told you dont
@@pmpandaIG of course! Its a motorcycle license.
Where can i get your hi way pegs and how do they lookihavea 2002 250 reflex and how much is the up grade and it easy to install and what does it look and do you carry a more comfortable seat
Did you get get my message
My email is innovationswelding@sbcglobal.net
I’m looking at an 04 reflex 26k on it they’re asking 1500 would that be reasonable?
Definitely seems to be a fair price
How much would a 04 reflex with under 5,000 miles go for
Bought mind for 2500 with only 7,000 miles on it
you said 82mph and your wearing shorts and no gloves your a genius
What’s the top speed on her
Just bought one from an elderly guy that had it in his garage for 10yrs with 200 miles on it for $575
That’s a steal! Nice find
@@SiegfriedsMotorwerx So it's considered stealing from him because you see that I'm a black guy? (JK)
I would like to travel on a scooter
i want 1
I notice you have no protection for your hands just in case you come into contact with the ground.
How much?
How much oil does it need
For an oil change?
Hey I’m in the market for one of those so if you come across another or hear of someone wanting to get rid of one I’m interested I live in pgh pa so I’m in the state
Someone sell one in concord,ca 4700miles for $2,8k clean title and excellent condition.
I have the jonway version from China that won’t recharge itself and no one wants to touch them!
Shocker…it’s from china
Do you need a license for that ?
Yes
Attach some pedals and get an e bike plate lol.
yes for sure
Sorry, you are close, but not close enough - ride the Honda CN250, also known als Honda Helix or Honda Fusion. After this ride you´ll never ride your Reflex...
Watch our channel and you’ll know how much we LOVEA the helix
You like old bikes? Try an old diet, Atkins. It works
Mama Mia….Thank goodness a health expert is throwing me some pro bono advice in the comment section of UA-cam. #lifeisgood
This guy doesn’t use blinkers
“Jiffy stand.” Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha. What, cause you think it’s a Harley?
Try pulling one up on the center stand. It is no ch250 elite or riva 200 yamaha. . The center stand could be in a more balanced place or larger. It is liking lifting the bike straight up as opposed to rocking it onto the stand.. In fact I beleieve a honda cb 750 was easier to pull up,
No I just like the way jiffy stands sounds as opposed to kickstand
What's the most I should pay for a 2002 Forza with 17k miles? Good condition
high mileage..essential engine oil change every 3000 miles or less... they only hold about 1200cc so it doesnt cost much..
Constant oil
Changes will keep these running forever
No helix
I heard the Honda Helix is way better.
Its the same thing only helix is lighter and less storage. They both have a low center of gravity and are longer then traditional scooters. Very comfortable smooth ride. I would not expect to be doing any donuts or drifts with one. I am not sure about highway riding on any scooter imo. The helix looks cooler if your born pre 1990. To find a good low km helix would be very difficult . You can pick up a decent reflex fairly cheap considering people want $2000 for 80cc big wheel yamaha.
@@johncribbs8382 The Helix has less storage? It actually has a full trunk. lol
I personally prefer the helix to the reflex in every aspect but mechanical performance.
Although the true dream would be a helix with a forza engine swap
Not cool you sell a Bike to a customer and then you go take it for a joy ride
"sold" Means a small deposit with intent to purchase. Also we did run this buy the prospective owner
4:42 Did Not come to a complete Stop.
Thankfully we lived to see another day
If you sold it you have no business riding it that's so dishonest and disrespectful
Sorry? What do you mean exactly?
looks like noah's ark with wheels. they should've called it honda reflux lol. i'm shaking...
