Advantages: Fast, high torque, good mileage, good handling, good acceleration.

Disadvantages: Susceptible to front-tyre shift on bad roads when using radials

This motorcycle outdoes any other that I have ridden. Acceleration from 30 to 60 or from 20 to 50 can be smooth, without any noticeability that you are accelerating. Handling on a corner is superb if you lean and shift your hips a little. The suspension is faultless. Mileage is 10 miles to a litre for less than 40 mph. I have felt no vibrations through the handlebar grips yet. Tyres should be knobby types or racing wets for old country roadws with plenty of patches or tar streaks. It is not top heavy but very susceptible to the tyre type versus the road surface.

Summary: The best
