I didn't like the feel, how it makes power, can't trail brake on it, idle wasn't rough... it was like the idle setting got ripped off in the wrong place. I don't look for comfort in bikes, but the seating position was "off".

I will generally ride any motorcycle that you throw me the keys for and have. And, I'm even curious to ride the new ones - will give them a shot too. But, man... I'm telling you... the other demos were tough.

Trail braking was absolutely an issue on the early XB's. That has been corrected, or at least improved. I dont have a problem with trail braking, but you're probably a better rider than I am. Idle should be between 900 and 1050rpm. Who knows with a demo. Surely they've been abused.

Your bike makes more than 84 ft lbs of torque?
