Yep. It's nice. I'm gonna change the oil at 6k tho. Previous owner said it was done at 5k but I'm gonna do it anyway. And brakes are a little spongy so I'm swapping that too....

Well, I guess those mileage intervals are only as good as how much you ride the bike... My brake fluid was starting to look a little yuck, but brake performance wasn't compromised much... that's with almost 9k miles in about 11 months. I could only imagine what it would look like on a bike that was a few years old...

I love the idea of no valves, no cam chain, sprockets, chains. F yeah.

On the 12 11% increase in torque, decrease in top speed. So you'd max out just under 120, but you'd have like 90ftlbs at the rear wheel. I feared the wheelie-fest that was sure to follow. |

I've thought about the 9 swap as well...but I dont have any issues with the torque right now.
And I pulled my first deliberate wheelie on Friday.

I can't help it. It begs me to break the law.
