| The more i ride this bike, The more i love it! I had it only about 6 months now but every time it´s over 50 degree´s F outside I´m on it. The only modifications to it were a Supertrapp IDS2 Muffler that came back off after about 3 months, Just too loud for this old man (47). The stock muffler is easier to live with, But the SuperTrapp sure did crackle when you got in a hurry. I also put on a Handlebar pad. It filled up the empty space in the middle of the handlebars. I still have the Bridgestone TrailWings tires that was on it when i bought it. They do a good job of running both Pavement and trails, Just not a excellent job at either one. They are easy to spin on the Pavement and dont have enough grip in the dirt. This Bike is fun in the dirt but the choice of tires i have now limit the amount of throttle i can use, Though with what i have on it makes it easy to slide a corner! This bike loves to flat track, Just hug up against the tank and steer with the back wheel. Keep the wheel spinning though or you´ll get to see what it´s like to high side a 324 pound bike! I dont recommend this kind of activity, But i aint having fun til i´m scaring myself! haha. I´ve been riding since i was a teenager and this bike is easily the most fun to ride of any i´ve owned. I can heartily recommend it to most but i can be a handfull for the novice, Plenty of power available. Cheers, Jerry |
