Advantages: comfort,usability, practical and fun, prescence ! not a bandit ! unique !

Disadvantages: camchain tinkle (don't be put off) no custom bits available

I bought my 'big one' as a running resto after way too many sportbike accidents and near misses.
I was initially concerned about what other riders would think about my choice as it was so heavily slated by the press on release (?) after 3 years I have finally found a bike to obsess over..the best way to describe it to other more experienced riders would be erm... probably an FJ1200 that handles It does absolutely everything with loads of gorgeous surging torque. It is surprisingly light on the move and benefits from new 4-1 pipe and K&N. rubber is pricey as 18" rims and the niggling thing is there are very few 'custom' parts available like there are for the 'blandit' this is a real world usable bike you really can use the performance not like silly r1's etc which we all grow out of ! super bike !

Summary: rare, collectable, usable,practical, confidence inspiring,absolute belter. misunderstood !
