First impressions: What a motor!!! Redline is at a lowly 9500 rpm but there's gobs of torque available from 3000 up. Just keeps pulling like a brute all the way up to redline :) It's got a Two Bros pipe, which looks & sounds nice and isn't too loud at all (*quiet* pipes save lives: I want to be able to hear what traffic around me is doing), probably adds some top end, and definitely reduces weight. Handling seems very nice. I'll know more after I get comfortable enought to throw it around a bit :) Nice seating position (and seat, for that matter). Fairing offers nice coverage. Electrically. Heated. Handgrips. April (and October) in Pennsylvania. Say no more. (I once nearly crashed coming off the back straight at Road Atlanta in November because my hands were becoming too numb with cold to operate the brake and clutch properly.) Lockable hard luggage. Great for carrying textbooks and stuff to school. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
