Well...my bike came in...sort of. Dealer has two on order a black and a red unit. He finally got the black one. The red unit will not be in until August 8th.
I want the red bike although the black looks good. My Superduke is the all black model so I want my next bike with some color. Anyway I got a chance to sit on it. Its quite a bit tighter than I'd hoped it would be. I loved the lower seat height...made it very easy for me to throw a leg over it. But like I mentioned the seat to peg relationship is not looking like an improvement over my KTM. I'm going to ride back Saturday AM on my Superduke which is tight for me anyway so that I can do a back to back comparision.
I took a few mins to look at it. Very well made, I'm impressed by the build quality and it sure does not come across as a small little 250. I want it but I've got to sit on it again.
So I'm somewhat bummed out by my first sitting. In the end if I feel its no improvement over my Superduke I'll pass and if I do go with it and want red I'll have another two weeks or so wait.
