I first ran across his videos when I was researching the Honda Africa Twin before I purchased one. I've seen a number of other videos since. The young man does a great job and has a bright future if he gets out of Canada. Smile

You'll love it. It is not as heavy as most of the other bikes in the category and handles more like a dirty bike that a street bike when moving but still plenty capable of eating up the highway miles. It's a great bike for exploring the backroads. A fabulous all around motorcycle.
