She looks like serious business... what are your impressions so far?

First impression, it feels top heavy.  After that, in no particular order...........clu tch pull is amazingly light and short, snick-snick gearbox w/neutral always where it's supposed to be, sounds lovely (stock exhaust), very good grunt (as LKJ Setright said long ago, torque is for people too lazy to shift), brick wall braking but very progressive and easily modulated, as noted in all the reviews it has a true 2x4 for a seat, a delight on the road but haven't tried any twisties yet, not much storage capacity, very nice suspension fully adjustable (so far I have dialed it to standard factory settings) not overly harsh, dash lights could be better in direct sun, comfortable riding postion (I'm 6'2" about 200").  Bottom line, no buyer's remorse whatsoever.   :grin:  Oh yeah, even in "road" riding mode, the front end feels light on good acceleration.

Hi All,

New member here from Australia and my first post group post.
Advertised price should be maximum price. It's a question of culture and what you are used to.
Here in Australia, there are severe penalties for trying to add on costs and our culture of doing business wouldn't allow it, the retailer would be closed in weeks if they tried.
As a further note to those defending the practise, all retailers are struggling with the advent of the internet!

Always remember, cash is king and any retailer should try and make the buying process as easy as possible, if they don't, go somewhere else.

Ciao,

Anthony
