Thanks! It is a looker. I get lots of questions and thumbs up. The NM4 is a cruiser and better in the flats and freeway. It is heavy and has limited lean angle ability so will scrap pegs easily. It's size and long wheelbase call for different braking and acceleration timing. While tiring, it is a blast to wrestle through the twisties. The muffler delete is a more raucous time than OEM. My other bikes are far better suited for twisties duty: Yamaha FZ-07, Honda CB-1 and KTM 690 SMCR. Having choices, I still like taking it out in the hills to hone my skills. The experience is therapeutic and puts a grin on my face everytime. I just don't expect to keep up with more nimble bikes piloted by skilled riders.
Looking at this bike to buy looks amazing...
Can't find that many reviews on it....
How do you find it in the twistys
