Pros and cons

Advantages

  • Easy to handle at low speeds

    At 101.0 kg wet, it should be manageable to move around when parking or maneuvering in tight spaces.

  • Long calculated range

    The stated consumption and 5.50-liter tank work out to about 306 km between fill-ups.

  • Convenient everyday layout

    Automatic transmission, belt final drive, electric starting, and underseat storage make daily operation straightforward.

Things to consider

  • Tall seat for some riders

    The 800 mm seat height can make it difficult for shorter riders to put both feet firmly on the ground.

  • Modest power

    With 8 hp, acceleration is likely to feel limited when carrying a passenger or trying to pick up speed quickly.

  • Rear drum brake

    The rear uses an expanding drum brake rather than a disc, so disc braking is available only at the front.
