Hi
For those that have owned both Himmies:
My wife rode the 411 for a long trip, the bike was excellent but she ended up with severe trigger finger due to the vibration - It took 3 years to completely recover.

Just wondering what the 450 is like over a long period - I realise these things are subjective - I don’t think the fuzzy biker has mentioned anything about it.
Thanks for any opinions.
 
I gave recently bought one. It’s had its first service but at 700 miles it’s not fully run in.

I rode 120 miles on Monday, all on fast A roads and had no issues at all with vibration.
 
Thanks
There seams to be mixed reviews about this so I thought I’d ask the question - most reviews do say it’s very smooth for a single but not all - she doesn’t want to go through trigger finger again.
I guess for a long trip over multiple months any small bike could be a problem.
