Right now i got 450 miles on this bike and it has been reliable and fun to ride. My principle problem has been with the helmet holder on the back. I had to drill and bolt at an additional spot that the dealer could have done to prevent it from bouncing around. Also, the screws that hold the back pad on it for the passenger came out so i drilled them out and put in bolts to hold the pad on. Very poor design to hold the pad onto the holder! Otherwise, everything runs fine and easy! We will see how it holds up with time!
