I've have a gt variant which I've had for 2 years now .It's been faultless as my daily ride/ touring etc .I use a top box most of the time and the semi hard luggage for longer tours etc .30k + miles in 2 years and still loving it .Servicing is just the same as an mt09 or tracer/ yes it's got an extra wheel but tyres last twice as long .The lean angle has never been an issue even on a track day 45° is the linkage limit .Comfort is great .It's a bit heavy lugging around the garage but it's effortless once on the move .It was a bargain price due to having higher than average mileage less than 1/2 price for a year old machine .The electronics are more than enough and I personally prefer the white on black LCD to the colour tft,s like I had on my ktm .I would love a t-max with this front end but with lock out .
