Dual Sport reviews

I have owned this motorcycle since it was on the showroom floor. After a lot of research on dual sport bikes - talking to many owners of different brands (BMW, KTM, Suzuki, etc) I was able to confidently purchase this bike as my one bike to do everything - backroads, touring, commuting and not be left wanting. Very little required maintenance, oil changes and tire changes - provided a bike that was always ready to go. The only quibble is that it was built before LED's were standard, requiring some aftermarket additions. I wouldn't hesitate to get on this bike to go anywhere on the continent.

This bike is amazing! If you don't like talking to people, this isn't the bike for you... people will ask you about it anywhere you stop :) Not only is it great offroad, but it's great for touring too, which is how I primarily used it. I have pics of it at the Tail of the Dragon, Back of the Dragon, in WV, NC, OH, etc... The suspension and wind protection on the highway are great. The bike has the power to cruise at 80mph without trying, and the Seat Concepts seat is fantastic for long hauls. Don't get me wrong - it will go offroad like a bikes half the size. I took an offroad riding certification course on it and was blown away by what this bike can do. It has so much low down torque, that you really have to try to stall it. And the course instructor was on an Africa Twin too :)

The best all-around bike I've owned. I've had a HD Road King, Indian Vintage and Scout to name a few, and this is the easiest to live daily. Parts are not cheap and patience is required to DYI repairs and maintenance.

This bike is an absolute blast to ride. Plenty of power. Yet handles the slow technical stuff very well. I did add the Beta manual fan switch for hot days and slow rides. Helps to turn fan on early. Oem seat is the most uncomfortable thing i have ever sat on. Seat concepts or any other quality replacement seat is a must. During the first 300 miles. Every time I hard stalled the bike. (4 times) The check engine light came on. Sometimes it went out on on its own. Others I had to plug into it and reset it. Mirrors are pretty flimsy and will be changed out soon. Fuel tank is to small and limits how far you can adventure from fuel source. Over all. I Love the bike. Best dualsport I have ever ridden. Currently have 68 hours and 2465 miles on it.

This is a very very good product for the price, I am a bit abusive when it comes to my UTV's but this one holds up well, the shifter can use some improvement but all in all it's as good as as the more well known and much more expensive UTV's, the problem with SSR is no one knows much about them and they lack promotional skills, even on YouTube there is little mention of the bison 400. If I were This company I would have a promotional add on YouTube for greater exposure. Good luck. SSR.

I bought the bike used about 18000 on it. About Three years ago. Great bike to learn on. Little to no maintenance required. Only issues I've had is with the clutch lever. But for a 26 Year old bike she screams

I’ve owned this vehicle for six weeks now driving locally around my acreage. First off my dislikes. My local dealer has no idea about the vehicle. Service manager told me they have had noting but problem with all SSR products. Second is SSR MotorSports. I tried to contact by email with questions, but I was always made to feel I was a bother.. why does the engine not have a spin on oil filter. 1.3 Lt oil capacity seems insufficient. My20 hp lawn tractor holds more than that and it has a spin on pressure filter. Owners manual which is available only on line is lacking in areas of importance to me. I have been unable to find a service manual for the vehicle. Overall a very nice vehicle. Never been stuck so far. Quick little vehicle although it does not like little inclines in high gear. We’ll see how it does come deer season.
