Ron, keep it mind it is a 250 and with all the gear a bit heavy, at that. At most I weigh 150 and mine happily runs past redline in 6th on the freeway so I have to watch the tach and back off. Running the stock 14/44 gears.
Most Cyclone owners are gearing lower (higher reduction) to make it more user friendly off road in the technical stuff. If you are seeking an ADV that will do both serious off road and also blast down the interstate all day, then perhaps a KTM 350 or something bigger will better suit you. Of course you're looking a twice the price if not more. Just don't want you to be disappointed.
