Hey all! My name is Dave, I am 20 years old and have just bought my first NTV 650. Started off by loving the look of the Honda bros and then opted for the beefier NTV!! Attachments:

Welcome Dave..... Yep, The NTV looks beefier than the Bros. But I'm told the Bros had a lighter frame and smaller tank...and of course chain drive. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSnc_UeMwHII would'nt mind trying a 650 Bros one of these days. There seem to be even fewer around than NTV's.

Bros had aluminium frame, rather than the steel of the NTV. They have a cult following in the States where they're known as the Hawk.

I actually owned a Bros for a few years - it was part of the reason I opted for the NTV when I got back to riding.
It was nimble and sexy compared to the NTV. The handling on the bros was on par with my old NSR250. My NTV is indeed beefy but i know once I iron out the non engine problems I have a bike that is good for another 50,000 miles and doesn't move too badly either
if it makes it through the next few weeks (few big repairs to do) it'll get a respray and some other love. I might buy a donor bike just in case as they are cheap enough.
love my NTV
