Interesting bike.I like the unique blend of actual motorcycle with scooter functionality(storage and auto trans).Like the honda ctx, this would be an intro bike for a generation that has never used a clutch.The cost is a bit high, but the coolness factor offsets that.i wonder how the honda CTX is selling.gearbox type is manual including number of gear 7 and the chain drive transmission is very reliable.the rear set fool reset and stepped seat give an upright and comfortable sitting position to the rider.the 218kg kerb weight and 175 mm ground clearance are the best consideration to fully control on the bike.that by I give 4 star.
