I'd say it's a solid contender to what's currently out there in that range. Def a nicer option than the Rebel 500. I had the Rebel 500 before, it sucked, it was slow...but something pulls me toward it again for some stupid reason as an in-between bike. But no...no more Rebels for me. Need to...

About $6000USD. The 30,178 is not USD

You don’t know how much will power I’m using not to buy it…
