Onr of my mates has one. Fuel economy - IIRC he was getting around 120 miles to £10.

Reliability - its never let him down in 5 years.

Top speed - about 100/110. Just don't try and hold that sort of speed for too long. We were both (me on a ZX6R) sitting at about 95 on a dual carriageway for 10/15 miles or so. We then had to pull over as his temperature gauge had been sitting in the red for a while!

Insurance should be cheap, as it tax. They're easy on chains and tyres, although as the tyres are fat (and an odd front 16 incher) they are pricey.

They have the same size and width rear tyre as the 900RR Blade .

Thats all I know that somebody hasn't said. They rev very high, so as McJ said, don't be sitting at high speeds for very long.
