My opinion about the bike.
Strengths:
* Visual that draws attention wherever it goes
* Low center of gravity facilitating cycling, especially on curves
* Short wheelbase, the bike looks like a toy when riding
* Good power, 142hp with a lot of adrenaline
* Consumption walking good, you can do 18, 19km/l
* Wonderful snoring and if you have a sized one, even better
* Headlights with good range when the bike is in a straight line
Negative points:
* The beam of light from the headlamp is rectangular and makes it very difficult to drive at night, greatly limiting the range of vision when making the turns, driving is compromised. When the bike is plumbed ie straight, both the low and high headlights have a good range.
* Escape is too low bumping the catalyst on most spring breakers
* Little on-board electronics, only ABS.
