I call bullshit on the wheelie guy thing

No problems what-so-ever... For anyone with joint pain, I highly recommend TriFlex from GNC. It seriously improved my situation within a couple days of use and after a week or so I had little or no pain. I keep forgetting to take it, but things are still good. I am definitely going to be buying more of this shit.

I said "not much of a wheelie guy"... Honestly... Never really done a wheelie on the Tiller.

Not that I haven't considered it, but with the 60 or so miles I put on it yesterday (ONSSP went for her FIRST ride last night after my original post), I have probably 200 miles on this bike. The timing of my kneecap was impeccable.

Everyone should ride a TLR at one point in their life! Just my opinion though!

My best friend had an RC51 a while back. Riding them back to back, the RC honestly sucks *in stock form*. It was much better once he put exhaust and a Power Commander on it, but stock, it was a pig.

I LOVE the brakes though!

Other than some spirited on/off ramps, nothing even close to real riding... No real riding because there's no real roads.

I will say this, it's a comfortable rig. Better than the 954 for the longer haul I think... from what little I've got it over on it's side she's nice and planted. I think I'm REALLY gonna love it when pushing the envelope.
