“I am beginner, this is my first big motorbike. Owned it for over over a year months, done 2500 miles in normal condition, mainly city cruising.
I bought it from mechanic, had 18700 miles on the clock drives and handles great.
Forget about choke and related problems, just turn the ignition on and start every day, whatever the weather.
I am 6'1 tall and find this bike just right for my height - few more inches and it wouldn't be comfortable as it is now.
No rev counter so shifting gear takes short time to used to, but it's not a problem.
Enough power for laid back cruising, junctions and taking over. When riding over 60 mph wind can become an issue, but nothing unusual.
Very forgiving bike.
Always gives me big smile when starting engine or pulling off from junction ;).
Fuel consumption ~ 4.0L - 4.5L / 100 km city riding.
What I dislike about the bike:
~ rear brake,
~ 2nd shift is a bit clumsy”
“I find the bike really nice and easy to ride, slick gear change and smooth fueling help. It could do with a bit more power but I didn't buy it for speed and with a set of drag pipes, power commander and autotune it sounds the part for sure. Not had any problems with it at all tbh.”
“This is my first Cruiser and I can`t fault it really. It will hold 70mph all day with good torque and comfort.
I love the look of it and its easy to service at home.
A+++++”
