congrats greg. that's a nice first bike. thought you were going to wait until the fall. definitely get some sliders for that bike. you don't want to drop it without them.

the exhaust is the one thing i don't like about those, actually. i'd have to do some serious searching for aftermarket stuff and look at the cost involved in routing it further up underneath the tail before i kept the stock exhaust, but knowing the cheapskate that i am i'm sure i'd keep it stock in the end.
and yes, that is a very nice lookin' bike. is the silver a stock color or was it repainted? i know they don't offer silver for the 09 or 10 models, but it does look really sharp and i might just have to look for one of those when i do some more bike shopping.

The bike is STOCK. I don't plan on touching anything unless I have to.
then i'll definitely be on the lookout for an 06 when i get my funding flow back where i want it and am in the market for a commuting bike. that bike is absolutely awesome looking.
but enough posting on here, get out there and ride the wheels off it, man!
