The overall weight is interesting, but I think you have front and rear the wrong way round: surely there must be more weight over the front, with that big lump of an engine.

It would be quite interesting to know the front/rear ratio with a couple of people weighing about 80kg each on board. It must then be slightly biased towards the rear.

It certainly handles better with two people! On my solo treks, I have given serious thought to adding at least 60kg to the passenger side!


What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.

And how in the name of the Almighty does this device know 20 sec before you have an accident that you are going to have one??????

Strikes me as a bit of smoke and mirrors!!!!!!!!
