Likes; sharp looking, smooth ride, peppy, inexspensive to buy and to operate. Dislikes; had to replace nearly every piece of rubber on it, it keeps discinagrating, hoses, valve stems, intake manifold, gaskits, seals, float in fuel tank, everything rubber. and the tabs that hold the plastic parts togather break off if you look at them wrong. seat is to hard uncomferable, speedo is off by 50%, acording to my GPS it runs about 55 on level ground, i keep battery on tender and still have to replace every year or so, there is no room for a passenger saftly. but what little i do ride it, it's still a joy to ride, i wouldn't trust it to go to far away from home but in my small town it's ok. bought new in 2005, added wind screen, box for rear, luggage carier for front, added a 12v port for GPS, switch for head light (better for cold starts). i have the light green one and it does still look brand new, i only have about 2000 miles on it, only ride april through oct. and then only part time. PS i know some of the spelling above is horrible but could not get my spell check to work, sorry. Phil USA, east TN.
