“Great bikes for reliability not a lot ever goes wrong with them unlike other makes handle well very good on fuel economy but again depends how you ride your bike keep them well serviced and maintained will get lots n lots of pleasure from them but then that applies to most vehicles not just bikes”
“Bought as a 2nd bike for the purpose of going to work and the shops in all weathers plus the odd longer spin out. The low down power is plenty and torquey enough for commuting. It is unintimidating in the wet the smooth power delivery makes it a doddle to ride. Rev the engine and it picks up it's heels and goes. Not sportsbike performance but enough go to enable a fun spirited ride. Handling is soft but sure footed and the brakes are excellent if only missing ABS. For the price I paid at the time (£1000 under list) I am well pleased. The bike is better built than it's price suggests.”
“Good all round machine for a first time rider who has passed there test for a bigger bike. Easy to insure and run. I have had no problems with my bike and ride it every day.”
“Bought this as my first big bike after passing my test ,it is so easy to ride ,very forgiving of the simple mistakes you make giving you confidence , the bike is totally standard and performs brilliantly for general daily use , excellent for long journeys and rallies the only thing it lacks is top end acceleration ( but thats not what it was designed for )
I would not part with this bike it is totally reliable and can turn its wheels to almost any task , solved the acceleration problem by buying a cbr600rr to track .”
