Ready To Tour .... Sort Of 

I’m a sucker for twin dials, so I’d always opt for twin dials, unless it’s a very modern racing bike.. your bike lends itself for dials over TFT for sure. 👍 😊

Its certainly a good looking bike - but for the nearly £10,000 asking price you could buy a decent second hand big twin Harley-Davidson. Now that might not matter to some perspective buyers, they might not care about the badge, which is perfectly fair enough, but i know which one I'd prefer to be sitting on 🤷

It’s a nice looking machine I wouldn’t mind trying one of those out.

Thanks man keep getting us updates on this one. I just saw 'em at the bike expo yesterday and being the Vulcan 650 rider for years now and yearning for something bit more powerful which kawa just fails to make this beautiful bike really ticles my fancy and damn the price being pretty reasonable I could get it right now. All my friends are like no no don't get a chinese bike but it really feels that these are much more premium and the thought that everything made there has to be crap might just be really outdated by now. I examined the bike closely and it looked so much better put together than any of the lower-end HD's. I'm just going to book some test rides on it and see but so far damn everything about this one just screams my dream bike.

I'm bipping around on a 125 cruiser, yesterday I found out that the waterproofs induce enough drag to take my top end from 60mph (63 in ideal conditions) to 55 and struggling. Hence I can't wait for the roads to be dry and stay dry.

Great looking bike and looks good fun .

That looks a cracking bike but I'm still not sure about build quality, when you haven't got the funds to take a chance, I think it holds you back..Enjoy your break

I used to have a cruiser, loved the riding position but I found long distances were exhausting. A little screen goes a long way. I also had Speedo cramp once and now im banned from the swimming pool....

Out of my collection my Zontes has been used almost daily during 2023 and completed 6000 miles without any issues those who knock Chinese machines simple answer! SHEEP.

Nice looker, but i agree with you should have twin clocks IMO, but i am old school. Have a great time glamping , be safe out there both.

Hi Shaun.. you know you’ve packed right, when you have worn everything, twice! Cracking looking bike! That’s from a bike snob! Nice one mate👍🏻

I test rode one of these a couple of months ago. I liked it and for the money you can't go wrong. The only thing that put me off a bit was the exhaust grounding out. It may have been me just pushing a bit to hard. Ride safe bro🙂

Looks the bizz,now all you need is a open face and sixties music in the backgroundhave a cracking weekend

Great looking bike. Should decent range for cruiser. Fully loaded with two of us I can get 250 km on my VL1500 at 60-70 mph. Have fun.

when we were young guns, we used to try and do that bend as fast as we could on the old two strokes, gorsey lane was a great bit of road back in the day.

Hiya m8, I took my GS out the other day for it's MOT. It was the first time out on a bike after getting knocked off in April 2020 and I felt well shaky to say the least. To be honest I don't really feel as robust after I've lost 17.5 stone and I just don't compress the rear shock when I'm sat on it so much now so I'm on tippy toes when I stop and I don't have the heft to get it off the side stand unless it's perfectly flat either. I need something like a cruiser now with forward controls so I can reach the floor and have my knackered knee in a comfy position. It's either that or I stop riding altogether. Take care 😊👍👍

Nice looking bike enjoy 🍻😎🏍️💨💨💨👍🏻🇨🇦

Enjoy weekend mate 👍 🍻

Don5 matter the badge, it's how it makes you feel!😊

I think in China this bike is called the Gadkin.

You've obviously fallen in love with this bike but a few negatives you mentioned 1) did you really say 77 mile tank range? Not much good for touring in my opinion. 2) ditto no screen. 3) key under the mudguard to remove the seat, don't fancy that in messy conditions. 4) road crud thrown up on to the back of your helmet would annoy especially if the wet runs down your collar. Not a bad looking bike for what it is.

I don't think there is anything wrong with the bike and it being chinese, especcially if you are thinking of keeping it for a long time. The issue maybe if you plan to sell soon after purchase as other people perceptions might mean you lose more. But I think it's a good looking bike. Hope you both have a nice time 👍

One more question if I may, did you had trouble cutting corners to the right. I mean did you touch that cannons to the ground? they are a bit lowish. If it does touch is it a deal breaker? do you feel you need to raise it a bit?

Hi Shaun, Looks like you do like the bike, looks steady on the motorway at 70........+++ do you put E5 or E10 in the bike. That looks a nice comfy ride no effort, it will swallow up the miles no problem on the A55 to Angelsey, have a good trip catch you soon, take care Mate

Maybe a screen at the front to keep the wind off you.

Not sure on the riding position, did a long trip once in that position and my back and arms were killing me for weeks after.

Nice one shaun, have a great weekend 👍 😀 🙌.

11:06 that's basically style over function with that exhaust for sure, if both pipes were in one it would be fine, but I just don't like the matt black look, it doesn't look quality compared to the rest of the bike

Hi shaun..that looks a bit of a animal. Out of my league...... bit of update (basic) lovely wife specialist (hospital today 1st ) brain shrinkage right side .going for m.r.i scan next also next week stroke clinic. He suspects wife having mini strokes. Nurse coming to home to access wife in normal Surrounds..ie tea making .cooking controls. Washing machine.....looking at possible dementia. Enjoy your weekend you and lovely faye The old fella

Looks very much like a Harley V rod muscle

Can I just ask what you switched to sport using ya left hand for a right switch, why not push it with ya right hand 🤔

What happened to your other eye?

Have a great time you pair of 😺krazy Katz 🍺🍺🍺🍷🍷🧁
