You won’t regret it. I went from a 152hp katana to the Urban G/S. Can’t stop looking at it.

Sexy. Are you riding it like a scrambler? If so, how does it perform offroad

Gravel roads are fine but offroad its way too hard suspension. Its basically a street suspension with agressive tires haha.

Is it just me or does it look like it's running bit lean to anyone else?

You can't tell the mixture of the bike by just looking at the pipes. Everybody makes their pipes out of some different material and they all react to temperatures differently. You have to pull the plugs to see if it's got a lean or Rich mixture.
