Anyone read the article in Rider magazine comparing the Uly, V-Strom, Tiger, and Multistrada? Some of their gripes with the Uly have been addressed with the '08,(i.e. increased steering lock and heat shield for your leg). The other issues were fan noise, which a new oil pump may minimize, and trouble shifting, which is a first to my knowledge. Too bad they didn't have the '08 Uly for the comparo.

Yea, it was a mediocre review, I can't argue except to say that mine hasn't had those problems in 6k miles. I think the bike is better than they said it was, and it surly won't get me to sell it for something else that's not as much fun!
