Depends on what you are looking for in a bike.
The Blast is a single cylinder 500cc street bike that is light and nimble and gets good fuel economy.
The bike is not powerful and is plain Jane looking, but it would be a good commuter and can keep up with traffic speeds.
It would also be a good beginners bike because of it's small size and easy handling..
