Like a champ , it's like a diesel locomotive ha ha only needs two gears, first and fifth
Handling is really good for such a high bike, it's real easy to get it leant right over

That's the same as an Africa Twin or GS or KTM Adventure (the other 'tall' bikes I've put a few miles on). Is it something to do with a higher centre of gravity? The quick steering of my GS nearly caught out my son (he rides a Thundercat). I've never been interested in sports bikes, but the more road focussed, lower 'modern' bikes I've ridden are very stable in corners but seem to take loads more effort to tip in to a corner.Handling is really good for such a high bike, it's real easy to get it leant right over
Lovely looking TDM Mick. Very clean.
