Handling is great. Don't load the rear rack too high. Try to keep the load low......seems to get a LITTLE froggy if you're a little top heavy.

Hmmm.....extras.....the usual.....lights, lock, that sort of thing. I put a rear fender on the first day I had mine as it doesn't come with one. If you have the extra cash change the rear brake to a disc as well. I just ordered a set for the front and rear on mine as I like to keep things the same for maintenance issues.

Bar Ends. Get a pair of them just so it's easier for you to change positions.

Also, don't plan on doing any "curb jumping". You WILL bottom out......

Anything else**********
