Une moto très réussie. Elle est le fruit de nombreux tests et d'un grand souci du détail. Elle a exactement la bonne puissance, exactement le bon châssis et exactement le bon look. Une nakedbike parfaitement réussie qui te rendra heureux pendant longtemps. Si tu veux, tu peux la conduire simplement et fidèlement, mais si tu le souhaites, elle peut aussi être ultra-rapide et vrombir méchamment. Superbe !

Châssis génial pour nakedbike

aspect magnifique

le moteur répond avec une grande finesse, monte facilement en régime et dispose d'un couple parfaitement dimensionné

point d'intersection optimal entre performance, prix et utilité pratique

Angle du genou très étroit pour les personnes de grande taille (commander une autre banquette !)
