Unfortunately, it probably wont come with the same commitment to engineering and manufacturing as an authentic honda. It probably wont have any resale value if you want to trade it and therefore the total cost of ownership will end up higher than just buying a used honda. In fact, buying a used honda is not only the least expensive form of motor transportation available, it's also a lot cooler than buying and overprice imitation. Please, poor financial literacy is what got us here in the first place. Don't buy anyone's clone bike. There are plenty of good used bikes that will literally run and hold their value forever.

You can believe who you want, but I am going with honda.com and not wikipedia.org on this one.

Leading links are great for reducing front end diving, but they are horrible when cornering. I for one am glad it doesn’t have a leading link front suspension.
