Pros and cons
Advantages
ABS at both wheels
ABS on the front and rear brakes helps prevent wheel lock during hard braking.
Low seat
The 780 mm seat height makes it easier to get a foot down when stopping.
Things to consider
Chain final drive
The chain needs periodic cleaning, lubrication, and adjustment.
Torque peaks high in the rev range
Peak torque arrives at 10,000 rpm, so the engine needs to be revved for its strongest torque.

How to measure
Stand barefoot with your back to a wall. Hold a book firmly between your legs, then measure from the floor to the top edge of the book.
Estimated ground reach
Both feet likely flat
You should have a stable stance at a stop, although seat width and suspension setup still matter.
