    I have the same bike and love it. as an experienced rider my only gripe is speed, but considering I bought it for fuel economy, I cant complain. Great review.

    I’m 5”7 and own this bike. Your review is perfect. It has a lot of weight up top. I’ve dropped it a few times due to uneven ground or sloping roads. But as a commuter bike it is perfect.

    Ive got to have one. Been on marketplace all day and found an 04 with 20,000 miles for $2500. That seems crazy cheap for such a cool bike.

    Even if you are not the strongest fella, if you handle a big heavy bike every day, your body will strengthen and adapt. Soon, it will feel light to you. (Provided you're getting somewhat decent nutrition)

    Would be my preferred next bike, but the seat height is a problem.
    Thanks for the video, even with a very old model.

      For most riders, even those shorter than average, once you're riding, that seat height is not an issue at all. You can also have the bike lowered by a competent mechanic, if necessary.

    When riding in the rain or mud does it splatter on your shoes, or on your back?

      Boots, yes a bit. Back, no.

    I have the same bike, colour too. Gas mileage declines once you hit the highway at quick speeds.
    I always seem to want a bit more power, when on the highway. Same mileage as my 2012 Prius V strangely.
    New vstroms have bigger HP. I just checked them out at the shop.
    The 1000 is most reliable, the 650 is more nimble, revvy, better mileage and CHEAP used.
    I bought a throttle lock, best upgrade so far as I wished for cruise control.

    Squishy front brakes? Change the hydraulic line to a braided stainless steel.
