23hp 8) ....good engine life / fuel comsumption
but still enough power for tootling around the back countrey.

might look at one if they import them here..
seems to be less & less models each year imported.

There seems to be few little probs with it for a small ADV bike
fuel tanks to small..
don't seem to be any where solid to bolt a rear rack..
head lights to low to use a guard mounted tool bag ..

Prob getting a bit picky now... :oops:
