Advantages: Classic look, quicker than it looks

Disadvantages: not very comfortable at speed

I bought mine over 1 1/2 years ago. 5500 miles later, i've got no complaints. Totally reliable, very cheap to run and fast enough to keep up with anything in town. Up to 75mph on the motorway but not very comfortable at this speed for more than a few minutes. I'd recommend this bike for anyone commuting in a large city who only uses motorways occasionally. Rear brake would be much better if it was disc. Smaller and lighter than its 125cc competition which makes it better in heavy traffic and easier to park.
