It's comfortable, with a wide seat and stretched pegs. Passenger seat too small and hard.
Engine is great(SV motor)and gives the power of cruisers twice it's size. Enough power to make you hold on in the first few gears and plenty to pass anything you have to at highway speeds.
Suspension is great for what you need it to do. Handling is good and quick. Brakes have enough power to stop you in a hurry even with a passenger.
With a sissy bar, new seat, and bags it's a great set-up for cruising distances with a passenger.
Build quality is still a bit off, but for the money you shouldn't complain. Paint is a bit cheaper looking. Some knocks and rattles at times depending on the rpm's but nothing to ruin the ride.
Overall, for the money-to-usefullness.... great deal. Very fun bike no matter how you cut it.
