I used to have the XL1000 version, its a massive and heavy bugger. Once going it was the most comfortable bike I have ever owned but round town and slow speed its a bit of a handful.
Having said that I do have a hankering for another.

they say om parts are the best ,i disagree.fitted a full stainless system for the 1/3 of the cost of the mild steel that turned to dust in 10 years fitted a Delkevic full system fitted them to my nc30 and my exup and are still as good as the day they were fitted that was 10 years now.was going to give it a run out today to bed the new pads but the size of the bike i could not get my leg over ,my right leg will not bend to miss the top box .even next to the triumph you would not believe it is a 125   |
