  Cons	Expensive for the segment No adjustable suspension at this price point Engine can feel less tractable at times in certain conditions Heat management could be better in traffic Racy ergonomics may not suit long rides	Heavy (240+ kg), especially with full fuel tank Expensive to buy and maintain Not very city-friendly due to size and height Gearbox can feel slightly notchy/stiff Not as powerful as bigger GS models
