<strong>RUST</strong> Adventure<br />
LOAD IT UP<br />
For our ride into the Himalayan mountains<br />
we packed some pretty large saddlebags,<br />
plus a big backpack – and of course we<br />
were a rider and pillion. Altogether, a<br />
payload of around 200kg (say 440lbs).<br />
A fair amount for a modest 411cc low-power<br />
motor to deal with. I was impressed to find<br />
the bike dealt well with the load, remaining<br />
stable, while the power remained plenty too,<br />
not feeling overly laboured.
