So sad, but one has to lose something to get something better, as the old saying goes! Now the bad news is that the update will un-hack a hacked phone and all old installed (unsigned) apps will be gone. With the for all Symbian^3 (and Anna) phones yesterday, most of you will get your phones updated sooner or later (many have done it already).

I have been riding 250’s for years. I have had everything from a standard CD250 to a Kawasaki ZZR. I have to admit I was a little concerned going down to a 200cc however this would have to be the best bike I have owned.
Its so easy to ride. Its what bike riding is all about. I’m a little heavy however I do manage to get it up to 110 k/h however it does struggle a little to get there. 0-80k/h is no problem and its quite zippy. Fuel economy is unbelievable. If your looking for an easy daily and economical ride, it’s a must!
Easy to ride. Looks Not a lot of power after 90 k/h – not a long distance freeway cruiser. I had this bike for 1 week when the cam chain tensioner failed without any warning whatsoever, causing the piston to hit the valves requiring a total engine rebuild. The engine had only covered 2600km from new!
And I was left stranded in the dark for hours waiting to be rescued by my wife and the trailer. As the bike was out of warranty Honda refused to accept even partial responsibility and now refuse to speak with me on the matter. I have searched the web and other forums where the cam chain loosening is a well known problem (Check Phantom Knights) Beware this cam chain tensioner is also used on other Honda motorcycles and has the potential to fail. I even wrote to Takeo Fukui CEO of Honda in Japan who refused to reply to my requests for help so when you consider buying Honda remember that a company with such a good reputation for quality will hide their heads in the sand should anything actually go wrong and fail to support the customer even after repeated requests, e-mails and letters. Don't even get me started about Honda MPE in Victoria, the correspondence I have had with them has been a joke! I bought a Hyosung instead after many disillusioned hours wasted with Honda and now resort to periodical reminders to their customer DIS-service department (Speak with Lincoln Bowdern on (+613) 9270 1265 if you want to be completely ignored) that the Hyosung DIDN'T explode after 2600kms of light use. Shame Shame on you Honda!
All it would have taken to convert an unhappy customer to a loyal Honda rider would have been a little co-operation possibly a discount on the parts I needed to rebuild the bloody TA200 or even a suggestion from their sales department that I ring them to talk about a trade in, my local Hyosung dealer GP Motorcycles in Adelaide have been excellent and I can't praise them highly enough for offering to take the pile of junk off my hands and help me on to a nice new bike well done guys and the bike is great. The last I heard the TA Shadow was repaired and the parts took nearly a month to come from Japan on back order, this would have cost me well over $1000 to fix which was almost 1/3 what the bike cost me so watch out, check that bloody tensioner each time you get on the damned thing, better still sell it and buy anything else, maybe that way Honda might see how their arrogance has let them down, tell this story to anyone you can think of! Everything Especially Honda MPE and their poor service. Great beginners bike but you will outgrow this as a rider.
