Are there really only three X9-250 owners out there?

I took delivery of a brand new X9 three days ago. It´s been 25 years (yep) since I rode a powered two-wheeler so I approached the new beast with some nervousness, especially as the weather was %&#!¤ing down in true English style. However, the machine is a dream to ride and it only took me a few kilometers to feel completely comfortable with the handling. Performance is great, even with a passenger, though maybe a bit limited for blasting along the highway. Something I don´t do often. The only criticism I can find is that the seat comfort is as bad as the reviews say; I tend to slide forward and have to keep standing up to relieve the pressure on the delicate parts. I expect I´ll get used to it (or start singing soprano).

It´ll be great to hear from any other owners...
