Ok, threw a leg over the Bird (didn't have the time to ride it today)
First impressions...
- looks much better in person than it does in pictures, the radiator isn't as obtrusive as you might think
- when cranked and twisting the throttle (in neutral) you can feel the extra ponies, it really winds up sweet
BUT
- the rear spocket (on the bone stock version) looks like it's plastic (but it isn't)
- the tank is HUGE, for travel that is probably good, but it seems to hurt the overall look (when sitting on it and looking down at the tank... it's really wide)
- the pegs seem too close, and a little high for my taste
- the lower cylinders really do need the extra fins to look right (cough, cough... Dwight is right, cough)
- significant difference in felt weight, probably goes away when you ride it (I'll find out in the morning)
