To be quite honest at present I feel that the handling is no way comparable to the Innova or Address but this may improve as I get more used to riding it. The riding position of feet forward means that you cannot control it by moving you weight around on the footpegs & it would be impossible to control riding "no hands" as you can do with motorbike
However these days I'm not in a rush to go anywhere, we like to go out up the Ribble Valley & Yorkshire Dales riding quite slowly & stopping to take photos. I wanted a light bike that I could control easier two up. Being automatic it’s always in the right gear & with all the controls on the handlebars both feet are free to hold the bike up. I found when I stopped with the Address on a very steep hill even though I locked the front wheel I couldn’t stop the bike from sliding back unless I used the footbrake & sometimes I needed both feet on the ground to hold the bike upright.
