VOL. 55 ISSUE 3 JANUARY 23, 2018 P85
Fill up, turn your
phone off and hit the
road. You'll get over
350 miles for a tank,
so you've got no
excuse.
You need to take things a little slower
on an Eluder and allow for wide corner
arches otherwise you'll be grounding
the floorboards (which must have been
designed with Shaquille O'Neal's feet
in mind—they're that big), but if you're
sedate in your riding you won't have this
problem.
The Eluder is fitted with unadjustable
front suspension and a preload adjust-
ment on the rear under the cover on
the right-hand-side below the seat, and
I must admit to being thoroughly im-
pressed with not just the bump absorp-
tion but also the ride quality. The Eluder
will ride over some pretty serious bumps
and the weight alone will help soak
up some of the shock, but overall the
suspension performance is one of the
standout features of the bike. It won't
dive excessively under brakes, won't
squat from the rear too much under ac-
celeration—all in all, it's very good.
Twin alternators mated to the motor give
750 watts in total, so you'll never have a
problem charging all your devices via
the 12V charging port.
