Has anybody here ridden one? What are your impressions. I have an option to buy a 2016 one with 1300 kms on the clock. It is the limited edition scrambler. Bear in mind that our dirt roads are way better than those in SA so comments about suspension travel and not having 21 inch front wheels are irrelevant. I am concerned about the measly 35 KW that it puts out but some say that the torque delivery makes up for it. My reasons for the interest are that the bike is simple, air-cooled, prop-shaft driven and light (186kgs). I am getting older and a lighter bike appeals to me, especially when I can do all the servicing myself. Some feedback from clever people here would be well received. Cheers
