I appreciate it. It's good to know that it can handle the higher revs and they'll come in handy once she learns the basics of how to shift faster. Does it vibrate like a SOB near redline? We're still breaking it in.

The older ones weren't bad... not sure about the 08's.
IMO the 250 had far less vibes than my SV.

I just got back around here...dont complain when people are trying to help goober, no matter what they provide...

as for the MSF not helping on the defensive riding part, ya'll must have some cruddy instructors, cuz that was a major part of our MSF down here...and making sure we were highly visible at all times...

On a different note, Nick I.'s book is pretty awesome...its got lots of fact and information as well as being written in a very easy to read and personable manner...like the guy was actually talking to you. Good Luck, let us know how she's progressing!
