I know some of these technologies have been available for a while, but the six speed is the seal on the deal.
My past motorcycle history: Started with an 84 Honda Shadow, then an 85 Honda Nighthawk S, then an 84 Honda 1000 Interceptor, 92 Honda CBR600F2, 2002 Yamaha FZ1, 2003 Honda VFR Interceptor, 2006 Yamaha FJR (still own), 2007 Aprilia Tuono (still own).
