General Comments

Excellent for commuting and when you need a bike that can be ridden rain or shine and will not complain about doing it.
Also very reliable and smooth V-twin - expect to have zero problems with a good example of this bike.
This said - the bike appears to have little or no acceleration - dont believe those who say the performance is good! It's a real snore unless you upgrade straight from a 50cc scooter to this but as a predictable, reliable and good value retaining machine that it is makes this bike unlikely to be a regretted purchase.
But it's the bike your mother would design for you - not the one that a young rider would dream about!
