You can complain about the Fury being a faux chopper all you want, whine about the VFR1200F's high price of entry, and insist that the Shadow RS will never be the Sportster it thinks it is. But a recent survey by MCN reveals that Honda-- at least in the U.K.-- is firing on all cylinders when it comes to reliability.
The 'Biking Britain Survey' involved more than 12,000 MCN readers who placed Honda in eight of the top ten spots.
First was claimed by the NT700V Deauville (pictured above, and referred to simply as the NT700V in the States), followed by the CBR600RR, ST1300 Pan European, and CBR1100XX Blackbird. The seventh through tenth spots were claimed by the CBR1000RR Fireblade, VFR800, VFR800 VTEC, and CBF1000.
MCN hasn't responded to an inquiry yet regarding who nabbed spots five and six, but I'll fill you in as soon as I hear back.
Update: The complete list appeared in last week's paper edition of MCN, and will be posted online later this week.

I’m certainly not surprised….Anyone else?
Pete,
Yeah, total shocker huh?!
Wonder who got the two non-Honda spots; I’ll update the post when the complete list is published.

Modesty aside, but really I was not surprised either!
