    :400: Welcome- enjoy your bikes .
     Don't know what all this quarter mile stuff is about .  :038: When I took one out for a test I wasn't even third gear and I'd already decided I was buying one !  Puts a smile on the face every single time- no matter what the weather.  :152:
    Cheers :821:

    Welcome! 

    I bought my 2016 model, new - after only ever having sat on one in a dealers a year previous.

    Never been sufficiently disappointed in any aspect of it - to think about changing it. 

    I think it is mostly ex-GS owners who make up perhaps 75% of those who don't like them.
