take it for a test ride
then you'll find out, different people have different opinions on different bikes.
It's all down to personal preference. Don't buy it because everyone on the forum says its really comfortable.
Try it yourself.

They're a lot of fun, my one is the older one and is an import so it's never been restricted. It's very quick of the mark and mine likes to wheelie in first and second. I've had 100mph out of going by the speedo no problem but at 80mph+ the wind slows it down a lot and i can feel it holding me back, great for cornering too as they are light and have wide tires (same size as bandit 600). I've scraped my pegs a couple of times circling round abouts.
The only problem i've had with the bike is that the exhaust tends to rust quickly in wet weather but the same applies to all semi naked bikes, just keep it clean and give it a coat of paint now and again. I've found the bike to be very reliable and will start with a tap of a button even if left for a couple of weeks in the cold and i've never had to use the choke.
You can pick them up of ebay for peanuts and for that reason i've decided to strip mine as the cost to get it all up together is going to be more than i will get for it but in parts the engine alone will sell very well. ____________________
