• Pros & Cons

  Pros	Strong and smooth 853cc twin-cylinder engine (~95 hp) Excellent ride comfort and long-distance touring ability Capable on both road and light off-road terrain Premium features like TFT display, riding modes, traction control Stable handling and plush suspension on bad roads
  Cons	Expensive to buy and maintain Heavy (230 kg), can feel bulky in city/off-road Notchy gearbox / stiff shifts Some features are optional, not standard Not as hardcore off-road as bigger GS models
