I've been lucky enough to have been given one of these as a loan bike whilst my Monster is in for a desmo service.

I was expecting to love the 'bike and was dreading having to resist buying one. However....

It's dreadful!

The seat is too low and the pegs are way too high. I'm getting cramp in my right calf! The quick shifter throws up false neutrals and there are huge pauses between gear changes. The seat places you too low and there's no room to move around.

It's a NO from me.
