This bike is good looking, comfortable to ride with good handling. Performance is best mid-range when you need/enjoy it most. The 3 cylinder engine sounds great and is very responsive. It captures some of the torque of the big twins combined with the attributes of a multi. The mix works well. It is also very good on fuel consumption. Bike starts easily and runs smoothly immediately. gearbox is quite slick too and not clunk like some of jap boxes. Difficult to fault. It is well engineered and stylish and no oil leaks! Quite easy to work on, the oil and filter can be changed without having to remove the fairings/bodywork. This is bike I wish I had bought years ago.

Hi , matey, know what you mean, the old british bikes used to leak etc , but no matter were classics all the same, warts and all, your bike sounds cool, the fact that you can service it yourself with ease is a great plus. Would like to read more about your bike, more info on here will help you no end, best wishes......... T.
