You have seen the pix and they are good looking. Yesterday I got a chance to sit on them at the San Mateo motorcycle show. I know they will have more power but the added weight and bulk are real. If you do a lot of two-up or highway riding they would be a good choice, but if most of your riding is solo or on twisty roads, I'll take the 250 any day!

How did you order the 500 already, are dealers accepting orders? (I'm in the U.S.)

I'm not 100% sure if they are taking orders. But I went to the dealer yesterday and told them what color I want and to get it coming asap. They said I will see it in april.
