Good Points
its a great local/English bike.
its great on roads starting with a B or a C.
its the motorbike version of the discovery.
Bad Points
long distance tourer it isn't(well anything further then a few hours without cycling shorts)
and needs some money spent to get the extra ooomhpp
lacks sports bike top speed (is that a bad thing in today's speed obsessed world?)
General Comments
I have had my CCM 664 for a 3 years now and apart from tyres and chains and sprockets its been great.
The odd electrical issue but one wire later and its all good.
I ride mine day in day out on and off road using road tyres never needed to swap them yet.
The fuel tanks a bit small in standard form 120 mile to the tank 13 litres.
In tuned form 80-100 to the tank the R30 comes with a smaller tank so get friendly with your local petrol station or pre progam your satnav for um.
better off getting parts direct as saves some money.
Easy to service yourself and they look good dirty or clean.
and the sports bike top speed yes they go quick in a straight line but can they corner as well as a supermoto?
