Well we had a very nice week on the little V.Strom and taking the small roads etc into account it aquitted itself well, riding mainly 2 up it trundled along the motorway at 100 kph easily enough and seemed happiest on the twisty country roads in the Northern 1/2 of the island.
I get @Davidtav`s comment about the dash but given it`s a LCD unit speed, revs, fuel level, flashing low fuel warning, temps for engine and air available, 2 trips mileage and ABS indicator in reality not much more needed.
I think if I was in the market for a cheap commuter I would definitely consider one seriously.
Cheers
Ian
