I saw the Bear in the flesh today at Motorcycle Live in Birmingham, UK. It looks pretty good and could make a nice compromise for travelling. Yes, there could be more ground clearance, it doesn’t come with tubeless tyres as far as I can tell, and there is no rack from the get go but none of these are showstoppers.
Another bike to take out for a test ride in the spring …
