Summary:
Great value; an extremely dependable fun machine to ride
Faults:
Steering head bearings needed to be replaced to stop deceleration wobble.
Replaced front springs with progressives to make the bike handle much better in turns.
Speedometer and odometer are 9% high.
Stock seat is extremely uncomfortable - I replaced this with a Mustang seat.
General Comments:
This bike is very dependable, a pleasure to ride for miles and miles at a time, and it has a great retro look.
I have made numerous over the road trips with this bike. Many days in excess of 500 miles and the comfort and rideability are a big 10!
It handles easily even with its heavy weight. Riding two-up does not significantly affect the handling of this bike.
Cruising at 75 mph is what this bike loves to do for hours at a time.
Would you buy another motorcycle from this manufacturer? Don't Know
