I didn't expect it in for another three weeks but it showed up on Friday. I picked it up this morning and tried it out going to work.

Now this is how a bike should feel! It has you more IN the bike than on it and I can almost flat foot with both feet at a stop!

The only drawback so far is the windblast from the top of the wind screen moved up to my neck where it was at my shoulders before. That may be a plus for some or a minus for others but you can change your wind-screen to a different height to suit your own preferences.

At a hundred miles an hour fighting a 20 MPH headwind my helmet was trying to lift off my head unless I ducked a bit or sat higher in the seat.

The low seat is a little harder than the stock seat, but I noticed they have put in a gel pad so it's still quite comfy!

They also changed the mold a little for the pan to eliminate the rubbing of the rocker box cover.

They done good I'd say!
