What reviewers say

Reviewers praise the flexible twin engine, improved chassis composure and more spacious riding position. Both find Y-AMT convenient, although its automatic shifts do not always match their intentions. Visordown reports false neutrals and a grabby slipper clutch during hard riding; Autotrader highlights limited touring and pillion comfort. The manual model's quickshifter costs extra.
