Look, if I was looking for a straight up commuter this would be on my list for sure.

There is something about this bike I just like....



I had a "run in" with one this morning. EDIT: ....a 390... We played all the way to the city. Past Paarden Island we went full taps, granted a XR650L full speed won't break any land speed records but I was a bit surprised that I stayed with him. He was ever so slowly creeping away from me at full taps but I was expecting him to blast me out of the water.

Next robot the rider was actually surprised the old tractor kept up.  ;D

But man oh man it is pretty. If I was in the market for a straight up commuter......

EDIT: I want a 690, not a 390.
