Other than that we can only praise the durability and reliability of them specially since many of our members have taken these bikes to far away places and with minimum maintenance except wear and tear of tyres, brake pads, etc etc.

One lady in particular Jmo has flown the bike to the US and rode a massive round trip coast to coast, on motorway, deserts, snow rocky mountains you name it, she then went on to partecipate in the Paris Dakar with the very same bike (modded for the race this time) and actually came quite high in the rankings.
