Well..Hmmm indeed!,I just bought one for me and my wife as a "run-around",my first impressions were "Look at the rear tyre on that!"...once I got it on the open road I found the engine was alittle rattly,speed wise ive got upto around 60Mph,although the wind can slow it down considerably !!!,well balanced as I can drive with no hands "not advisable".I also took it up some local hills and found that the "pulling power" in first gear was poor..ie:- nearly went backwards (OUCH!!)...,im going to check the exhaust for things that seem out of place,as a few more Mph wouldnt go amiss,even abit more torque would help..all in all il give the bike 7/10 which is quite generous for a miserable git like myself :-{
God bless
