The Spec'd take

Why it stands out

  • Genuine standout retro-styling and road presence with a real twin-exhaust signature look unlike anything else at this price
  • Real smooth, city-friendly engine character with solid paint and build quality

Worth knowing

  • Real low ground clearance means the exhaust can genuinely scrape on speed breakers
  • Genuinely cramped for taller riders (5 ft 10 in and above), with no Bluetooth or riding modes
