If you ride this thing around three city blocks at 25 MPH you'll hate it with a passion. Get it in some twisties and run the snot out of it, you'll see what all the fuss was intended to be about.

Waiting to see one on Mulholland Drive up on You Tube.

Funny you should ask. Brookside just left my place. They drove all the way from Tulsa to my place (150 miles). Fixed the software glitch and performed my first service. All on the house. Bike is perfect, everything is sorted and all is well with the world again. That's customer service at its best and it wasn't even the dealers fault. I knew it'd be sorted, just had to come up with a time for all schedules to mesh.
