I've only got a couple hundred miles on it so far, but I can already tell it is everything I was hoping for and more.
All the electronic do-dads on it work amazingly well. The traction control is amazing, the abs and linked brake system simply work, and work well. The "touring" mode and "sport" mode effectively give you two completely different bikes in one. Smooth and gentle in touring mode and surprisingly quick in sport mode. It is rock solid on the slab, completely smooth, comfortable seat and seating position, and eats up the highway effortlessly. I'm still looking for faults, but so far I haven't found any. Gonna take it on an all day ride this weekend to try and get a better feel for it. I'll let you know how it goes. |

Not exactly sure how I feel about that thing, but I think I like it!
