I have been riding for over 16 years and I have only owned sport bikes before and a must say this bike is night and day different. I'm getting use to the vibrations of a V-twin but love the torque. I went for a 150 mile ride yesterday and I hope the seat breaks in over time, but other then that I love riding it.

Sucks to be you. Why all the waiting, these things are in stock all over?

May you enjoy it in good health,
