Anyone here have one, or used to own one? I've been having a look at them and fancy a red one with the white stripe. I think the stock handlebars may be a touch too low but would fit bar risers. What's the maintenance side of things like? I'm prepared to do as much as possible myself.

I'd appreciate any input on this, thanks.
 
No, I may go down the route of an older air cooled variant. A little less complicated and cheaper.
 
I had one out a test ride and I felt a bit underwhelmed by the 821 engine it felt lacking in torque and under powered for its claimed stats. As a current 900 Superlight owner it could be i’m Spoilt by my grunty 900 aircooled motor despite it only having 70odd Hp.
 
I had a 1200r version out for a test ride. Didn’t want to leave it back. Beyond my capabilities but what fun I had trying..
