Overall Rating
- Value for money
- Length of ownership1 yr
- Reliability
- Year Manufactured1997
- Build quality
Slightly forward and unconfortable riding style on older models. High fuel consumption (about 7liters/100km).
Small fuel tank- makes for about 160km range.
General Comments
Fantastic torque, very good power, great handling - solid in corners, thin for going through/between traffic. Quite light. Good wind shielding. The ultimate point and squirt commuter.
Styling: What Sonja the Red Warrior Princess would look like if she was a bike.
Reliable, cheap to service and maintain.
Extremely capable bike, with only niggly bad points that can be planned around.

Insurance
So, if a driver with the $5,000 minimum totals out your $15,000 bike, his insurance company will pay you only $5,000. How will you get the other $10,000?
