Bad Points
I sometimes find it hard to corner really well in the wet when going slow - but that may be due to me being more use to four cylinders.
General Comments
I like it. Riding position is great. I have been used to upright models Yam XJR1300 etc. but the speedmaster is more laid back. Feet forward is without doubt the best ever riding position - I like it. Build is not quite as good as Japanese, but it definitely has something. It is throaty. Need to keep in a lower gear when going slower than you do with a big four cylinder. Really nice styling. Some quaint things about it.
