Pros and cons

Advantages

  • 20.1 L fuel tank

    The tank lets the rider carry a sizeable amount of fuel before needing to refuel.

  • Electronic fuel injection

    Fuel injection meters fuel electronically rather than relying on a carburetor.

Things to consider

  • Tall seat

    At 836 mm, the seat may make it difficult for shorter riders to put both feet down at stops.

  • Heavy at low speed

    The 235 kg wet weight can make parking and slow maneuvering more demanding.
