Overview
Sachs Roadster S 800 Titanium
The Sachs boasts gorgeous design with excellent build quality and ought to be better than it is. It seems a bit busy, trying to be part roadster, part sportsbike, part cruiser and the result is a slightly disappointing, split-personality that doesnt really deliver on any level. You can have fun and itll make you smile But its unlikely to ever have you screaming into your crash helmet for more.
Ride Quality & Brakes
3 out of 5
The handlings pretty good, with wide bars, and its easy to tip in to
corners. Push it harder and youll soon feel its weight, however. The
brakes are fantastic and have loads of feel and the gearbox is good.
Its vibey through the bars and pegs at higher speeds whilst the
suspensions good, rather than great.
The V-twin engines a Suzuki number (its used to power their VL800 Intruder) and its very much a cruiser job which doesnt sit entirely well in the Roadsters chassis. It has plenty of torque, as youd expect, low down and in the midrange, but still not quite enough power to match the bikes flingable leanings. The Roadsters built to a high standard but those gold-coloured USD forks do look slightly out of place. The engines a tough one, even if it doesnt suit the bike terribly well, so reliability shouldnt be a problem. Sachs bikes are hand built so precision and care in their construction is paramount. Good.
