Bad English
editThe following phrase has a problem, I don't know how to reword it. It's like 2 sentences badly combined:
though the bike has a low top speed and acceleration, they are prized for their high reliability and fuel economy make them ideal motorcycles. DaveDodgy (talk) 13:53, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
- Well, that's not exactly NPOV either, so go for two birds at once: use more sentences, and stick with citable facts.
- By that I mean give the reader statements about the bike's performance, its long production run, and enthusiast groups. Let the reader conclude that the bike isn't fast & is popular, and make his/her own conclusions about why that is. How you arrange the facts in a paragraph, or in paragraphs, can help lead the reader to what you wish to get across.
- Am I making sense? As wiki editors we can't make subjective statements like "ideal motorcycle". I tend to write something like your example as a draft remark, then use it as a type of map to show me what facts I need to expand and back up, and what opinions I need to jettison.
- I just did an expansion of Honda CT series. You might want to dig through it for some citable figures. We could use more, but it's a start. CoffeeYesPlease (talk) 21:31, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
This version is not road-registerable in Australia

Infobox from CT series page
editThe infobox for this bike at the Honda CT series page has a lot more information than this one and I intended to move some of it over to this page, but the pertinent references for that infobox are in Japanese. I lack boldness, and am not sure if I should utilize those references since I can't understand them... But I'm going to do it anyway. I'm posting this to let people know there might be a problem, and that it'd be great if we could find some English references. The2crowrox (talk) 00:17, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
- When I did the Honda CT series page I used two machine translators, and thought about the returned data. Any data that wasn't clear, wasn't used. I'm cautious. So I think you can sleep soundly. ;) CoffeeYesPlease (talk) 03:14, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
