Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Great acceleration - I'm not a speed merchant but I appreciate the power in the machine. I do find the drivers seat a little uncomfortable, the scwab on the RHS digs in to my thigh and causes discomfort on long journeys.
What's it like to park?
No worries with the camera.
