up to 6000k & ready for 2nd service still getting used to the heavy feel and love to get on a lighter bike on short trips another downfall i have noticed is that it is very hard to read spedo in any sort of sunlight,it either reflects off the reto chrome trim around the instruments or the numbers are in the shadow of the cluster when the sun is in the front ,i am seriously considering fitting an auxilarry digital spedo with a taco in it as i feel a taco would be a great advantage to let you know what gear you are in as i have hit the limiter in 4 th gear not realising its not in top gear ,earlier viragos as my 1100 was, had one & i found it handy often, if i fit a new cluster it will be positioned more vertical as to avoid the sun problem .I also find the spedo difficult to see at night and had read somewhere that blue is easier to see than red. A big digital display like late 1200 susuki bandit is the answer. I think all in all its a very comfortable bike on a long run and you dont seem to get that iron %&#!¤ feel after a couple of good long days in the saddle
