I think there is a great difference between 'durability' and 'reliability' when it comes to motorbikes, and the reputations therein. '60' s Brit bikes were durable, but not reliable. Early Japanese bikes were reliable, but not as durable. Honda was the first manufacturer to combine both traits, and most modern bikes are more reliable and durable than their ancestors.
