Good Points

It is a great concept. I've been riding this bike under snow conditions without a problem (be careful when it gets slippery) and riding the bike without wearing the necessary motor clothing is a big bonus. For me it was a great commuter for a number of years. And to be perfectly honest this is my second one I am owing. The first one ended in an involuntary crash test. Bad for the bike, but not too bad for me.


Bad Points

The bad point is the reliability of the engine. Roughly each 10,000 kms the engine needs to be overhauled because it lost compression (faulty valves).
