Strengths & Weaknesses
Strengths
- Automatic clutch (shifting without the lever), electronic air suspension with variable seat height, extensive electronics (ABS, TCS, cruise control, TFT with OTA updates), distinctive V-twin cruiser concept, competitive price of 9,999 euros
Weaknesses
- Young brand with a thin European dealer network, long-term quality and resale value unproven, inconsistent factory figures (weight, valve count, pillion seat), relatively heavy with only 50 mm of rear travel
