What reviewers say
Reviews of the optional E-Clutch version praise the punchy engine, agile handling, comfortable riding position and value. E-Clutch makes traffic and downshifts easier without removing manual control. Autotrader finds braking confidence-inspiring; Visordown would welcome more bite, notes occasional shifts smoother by hand and criticises the narrow mirrors. Suspension adjustment is limited.
