Great bike, I had one for 6 years. The suspension is a little harsh if your a light weight but can be tweeked pretty easily. The ride postion is also a little uncomfortable for long trips, until you get used to it.
A pipe, some jetting work and a good tune will see about 110hp at the rear wheel, all you really need for the road.

Get out on it and enjoy... :)

i saw one on the road today - first time i have noticed one (not sure of its year model though)

I thought it looked pretty good.

No idea what they ride like though.

imo a tough little bike,
certainly an aggressive riding position on the thing, I believe it has one of the best front ends in the business, so the mags say.
A very well sorted thing I have heard.

I rode one for couple hours, 4 years ago, and cramped up in the leg real bad, but im not the smallest most flexible bloke running around.
