Vstrom

Manual for a sunday/holiday drive, but automatic for the daily grind

Before motolite, they were the only one with the base hold for the tucson, but will just die without any warning and leave you stranded. Now Amaron, they now have the base hold feature and have delivery too.

Definitely, Gunmetal.

Modified. Just keep the original parts and put them back when it is time to sell.

Amaron is a good choice. It is made and sold in India, hot weather is not a problem.
