What I'm saying is that the little Katoom doesn't stand out particularly in the increasingly crowded junior adventure section, individually defined. The first thing you note when stepping aboard is that, unlike so many budget bikes, the 390 Adventure is full-size.

The time has now come for electric vehicles, after several years on the fringe of the automotive mainstream. One by one, it overcame the old limitations of modest range, golf-cart-like speed , high prices, and slow charging.
