Power curve is strong and smooth as stated, and handling is sure and light-footed. Right now my only two complaints are the poor gas mileage coupled with a excessively small 3.7 gallon gas tank, A larger tank should have been built into this cruiser (which is just a puddle jumper with only 35 MPG), giving this bike a range of only 100-115 miles between stops. I live in the high desert of Southern California and I make several long trips a year to the Laughlin River Run, Lake Havasu, Yuma AZ and Las Vegas. My second mild complaint is the whiny metallic engine noise from the top end. This may get masked over after I upgrade the exhaust to the Cobra 3" Drag Pipes. Right now the you can easily scare a pedestrian that may not hear you coming until you are only a few feet away.
