General Comments

I have had dozens of bikes, and this has to be the best built bike I have ever had. I even went on a tour to France on it and it proved to be perfectly comfortable for stints of 2 to 3 of hours at a time, My gearscac tailpack fitted well, and very secure with some of that grippy rubber mat stuff. I find the sports riding position very comfortable - double bubble screen fitted. I also prefer Yamaha for the longer 6000 mile service intervals, and also seem to cost less anyway. If kept above 10k revs will keep up with ANY bike around the twisties. I also think that Yam build quality is at least equal to Honda now - highly recommended.
