I’m 6’4 235lbs I bought this bike in 2015 when it first came out I have the xg750 I ride it everywhere and rides fine I’ve rode two up. Now I used to have a gxr750 an a hyabusa before an to me I’d rather ride something vs ride nothing. Also I live in north west Texas a lot of highways out hear an wind 💨 bike still rides great. Not just for new riders it’s for someone who either can’t or don’t wanna spend 16-25k$ on a bike.
Loves the bike but gave it 4 out of ten ! Good job he likes it then if it was a bad bike he would have to give a minus number . Don’t think I have ever been on a bike I would rate so low . I have one of these and they are great fun …… not a 10 like a a Honda vfr800 or for a fairer comparison a triumph t100 but definitely 7 or 8 out ten 😊
