I bought the bike with Dunlop tires, but after changing, my dealer proposed me MICHELIN ROAD PILOT............ now i changed them again against Michelins;, it's really a superb tire, as well in front as in the rear.. I would likt o change the exhaust, but really to expensive. Afther 40.000 km, it really makes to much noice. As i am 66, i will now buy a lighter bike, .......... HONDA CB 500 But i will maybe keep my 4 cilinders, after 30 years, it's like one of my childeren.............
Hello, i've the same but a red one. I bought it new. Only problem i've got, 4 times carburator problems. I had to let them clean. Expensive. In winter, i do not drive it for 4 til 5 months. Every year the same problem. Really very difficult to start it after the winter. I like this motorcycle very much. The only thing is, that the seat is too hard. Otherwise , i like especially the very smooth engine. Is now like a diesel. Torque in al the gears.
I'd say it's small for you. I am 170 cm and it is a very easy-to-handle motorcycle for me. My primary bike is a Kawasaki 1400GTR so I'm quite used to bigger bikes.
