Test Drive 2012 DS
« on: August 05, 2013, 07:37:19 AM »

I was down at my local dealer this weekend to test drive a 2012 DS. Well I must say quite impressive bike! This thing has huge torque. Love the balance but she sits a little proud. I still could touch the ground a little. I think that If the 2013 is better than this I may have to upgrade next year. My 2011 xu is great but has limited range and power.

The 2013 is a huge step up but may be a little taller?   The S is very low, you wouldn't have any problem touching the ground on that.

I opted for the low seat on my '12DS.  Still can't get both heels on the ground, but it's much better than the regular seat height!
