    Had one years ago, you'll enjoy it.
    I used it for commuting and it was probably wasted on me. It wasn't overly fuel efficient and I remember not getting great mileage out of the rear tyre but other than that it was a Honda so its engineering is better than good.
    I remember talking to a courier at a petrol station and he just looked at my bike and said " that's a wheelie machine that".
    Good luck with it. Enjoy.
