Simplicity
The simplicity of this old school motorcycle is extremely refreshing. I can work on it using my very limited knowledge and toolkit and sort out a few things myself. Anything that I can't fix will most probably be taken care of any road side mechanic. No fancy electronics and complicated sensors the deal with.
Don't get me wrong, I love the whiz bang features of my Tiger. But if you ask me to choose between both motorcycles to take to a remote location where the real adventure lies, I would pick the Impulse without thinking twice.
Offroad beast :)
