try riding the 690 on the freeway. The motor is smooth enough especially when opened up and tuned but it’s a trwitchy nervous experience, i dont know if its suspension geometry or the lighter weight but its probably better to take back roads instead which is kind of better anyway

i had a 950 se and then an adv for a while and they were pretty good bikes the se excelling offroad and the adv not so much but a good traveler. When i tried the 1190 it just seemed big, too big. So then i had a 690 enduro for a while, almost same as 701 and it sucked on the freeway and there is no way you could do…

thumbs up or thumbs down to the 19 inch wheel

its nice but it needs the 4x4 option for 12 month cold climate use, you know it says adventurous on the side of it. Not really for rock crawling but to get safely off the beaten path now and then and snow covered roads.

no but thats cuz its a cheesy retro, although that red and blue cb1100 with the fairing was a sweet

my car has a really long 7th and i actually made myself use it recently on freeway trips , it works out only because the little beast puts oud good torque from low rpm, so I think seven speeds is the bomb

and the hybrid will be moving up market too

the problem with using the twin is you don’t get that much of a power bump to go along with the weight penalty, unless the 500 is breathed on but then it’s still too heavy for ripping up trails

the nose ring is a nice touch

so wait you are complaing because there is more choice ? I think there is a ton of redundancy in these models but who am I to tell someone what to like and drive, the more choice the better

yes of course but this action is way way over the top

geopolitics from the shadow government ie weaken europe

uh the difference is when the banks were fined 1 billion dollars they had already stolen a hundred billion, with VW not so much

mclaren 570 gt and a used beater prius, that acura seems like its heavy and numb

that dont look right

nothing wrong with a tuned 4 with better power numbers as it works better in a lighter car, the mazda /abarth lineup sucks balls compared with a gti,golf r etc or most any of the other performance 4s out now

slow and cramped inside i dont get it, yes it handles but still

a45 not bland

i like it , almost 400 horse smallish 4x4 coupe. Needs a darker optioned interior without all that aluminum and also in a metalic grey exterior. I might go for that over a 45 c or gla as it would definitly have a more refined ride to it and even better high speed manners
