“If your looking for something with a bit more kick than a 125 but don't want to be messing around with a dangerous amount of power, or you're getting your first bike, this is the bike for you.
Everything on the bike feels smooth and easier to control than any other bike i have ridden. Also the sporty look is awesome. Also depending on which model your getting the prices completely vary so you could surely find 1 in your range.
The only criticisms i have would be; it is near impossible to do a 180 tight turn on this bike without putting your foot down (this is not a problem on any other bike i have ridden). Also it would definitely benefit from more trunk space.
Other than these small criticisms, i couldn't be any happier with my first bike!”
“Pluses:
Perfect "city-badass" bike, really small and can advance in traffic where larger bike can easily stuck. Perfect handling on corners, you'll enjoy every turn and try to pass it on higher speed you can. ABS as a standard - definitely most important thing bike must have. That will save your money for fairings repair after small crashes and will prevent falling down in more dangerous situations.
Downsides:
Bad performance and handling when carrying pillion passenger - I almost always ride with my wife and there is HUGE and TOTAL difference when you ride alone and when we're together.
Also long rides are way exhausting... as weight is low, wind can easily blow you away from line. And sudden wind strike significantly changing riding experience on motorways - it is just unusable here, imho. Fighting with wind and road... all that happens always. Also the noise on 70-90mph is way too loud for even 2h (~150miles) ride...
Ultimately:
Best city bike ever for enjoying it with yourself only! Don't even think to share that beast, and do not try to escape from city labyrinth.”
“This in my opinion is a fantastic bike for a 300cc , It rides and handles well comfy to ride and riding position is good if you are tall you might find in a bit scrunched up .I am a short ass 5/4 and can flat foot both sides of bike it is quite low, which is great for me , some taller could find it a problem to ride as your knees could be touching your chin ????might be better off buying a bigger cc bike on the whole I am really pleased with this bike have been riding it since September 2016and no problems. Bike is quick on accelerating and quite fast also dare I say I had well over 100mph on M4 motorway”
“This bike is very economical ! Getting 74 mpg. I like this bike because it is nice and light and has a low seat. Very easy to handle. I enjoy riding my bike ! Great fun and is capable of keeping up with the bigger bikes on rides out ! Looks great too ! Brakes and handling is what you expect ! My bike is very comfortable to ride has you can choose to sit up or get down low for faster speeds ! Very good value for money !”
