Good Points

Well what can I say had it for 5 months and is an amazing bike... great pull off speed and gears, easy to work on the engine and body (for example I have changed the bars and put on hand guards) also I have had to move back the wheel and found it easy to keep the engine clean and oiled. The bike does not drink the juice and I can do about 12 miles a day and only fill up bout £7 ish a week.


Bad Points

The chain can become stretched and slack quite easily, the light on my rev counter went after the like 10th time I took it to about 55mph. The forks can rust in small spots and can be quite dodgy in the rain for handling.


General Comments

Yes ...would definitely recommend to people, but if you want to take it off-road I would get the RCR, not the Gilera SMT, or if you got money get some nice crosser tyres either way same bike but I would put a sports exhaust on ... am hoping to put one on mine soon.....
