bit difficult to pull smoothly away from a stop or to round a slow speed turn — the power feels like it’s on/off, on/off every time a cylinder goes off and when it does, the bike wants to jump forward. give it just a tiny bit of gas in a slow speed corner and it jumps ahead if the gear is too low and bucks like a bronco if it’s a gear too high.
but this is what gives the bike character with a capital “c”. i love it! you definitely, absolutely know that there’s an engine under there with a living, breathing soul, just waiting to be let loose. now
