What kinda mileage you getting? Just turned 850 miles on mine and get around 40 mpg or so. I expect that to climb up a little after the 1000 mile service. I do mostly around town riding 35-50 mph.

I went from an 05 XL 1200C to an 07 Softail Standard. I still remember the ride home after getting it. It was like riding a big comfy couch. What a difference between the two bikes. Plus the Mrs. can ride with me without feeling like shes trying to push me off over the tank. LOL
Enjoy the scoot. I love mine.
