“Great bike. Sportsbike handling in a touring package. Linear torque spread means instant power. More economical that expected 42mpg ridden very hard, 55mpg touring. All components are top quality. Suspension is fully adjustable and top quality. Sounds amazing. Superb electronics. Cruise, bluetooth hub, ABS, TC, 22 litre tank, and more. I have the touring package, centre stand, 3 level heated grips and panniers. Lots of space, a panniers are narrower than the bars to easy filtering, grips are very warm, centre stand even has a folding handle on the side of the bike to light it up. Single sided swing arm looks the dogs. Quick shifter is anew on to me but it's really impressive up and down the box. 1st to 2nd at low speeds up and down really needs the clutch, other than this it's been spot on.
MINOR COMPLAINTS:
- More gearbox noise than I would like, it's normal but quite loud.
- No mileage left to empty on the screen or consumption info. Got a fuel gauge which is fine.
- The dashboard is very busy and hard to read for my old eyes. I know italics look funky but they are not easy on the eye.
- Came with trailie tyres, they now come with sports touring rubber.
- Quite tall but I've fitted a lower seat that's excellent.”
