Had one for a couple of weeks while my triumph trophy was in for service. It was in orange so you couldnt miss seeing it. I found it to be small as i ride a much bigger bike, it is very nippy then i realised it has a 955i engine in it. A 3 cylinder so it had a nice sound to it. It is a sports riding position so can be uncomfortable for distance work as your weight is carried through your wrists. It would be good for short distance commuting through a big city as its small and nippy to squeeze through the traffic, that it the kind of commuting i do and it coped but at the end of the journey i found it tiring and will stick with the 1200cc Trophy. I think it would be quite easy to break the speed limit on it without realising as it is small light and powerful. But it does handle very well as a good sports bike should but didnt get chance to try on a track or country lanes. I would suit a shorter person as im over 6 foot and found it to be quite a cramped riding position. The harder you ride it the quicker the low fuel light comes on so it can be a bit thirsty. I would recommended it but only if sports bikes are your kind of thing, i prefer cruisers and sports tourers.
