Our take on this /// Verdict
It is a good-looking bike and will get many compliments. The riding position is comfortable for most under the 6' mark. The 494cc Revolution X™ V-Twin engine is great on gas. The more upright riding position (compared to most cruisers) is generally more comfortable while improving riding skills.
