Great for motorway crusing
I have owned my Bobber for a month, I can recommend setting the seat back and gaining a better riding and comfort position. The use of the bike on long journeys on the SLEX/NLEX has shown it to perform well in acceleration and comfort and returning good fuel consumption as you are mostly cruising. The issue of in-town usage is that on rough roads, and there are a lot around Manila and the suburbs, the bike does not handle the bumps well. There is a lot of transmitted shocks to the seat and handlebars as the suspension travel is limited. I use the bike as a daily driver so I cover local, potholed and pitted roads to highways and I can tell you I know when to slow down and drive around rough patches. If you are a long distance, highway traveller, the bike is perfect, in town it suffers. Design wise, I love it, I will not change it but I have modified my driving in town and on rough local roads.
