Unfortunately this Black one is the slowest until I get more comfortable.

You have good taste in bikes, looks just like my 2011!
Check the bar angle setup on your bike. It looks like the dealer set them up high and the clutch cable is stressed. my cable has a slight angle formed into it near the lever to follow the contour of the bar. May be just the angle of the pictures.
Anyway, welcome and ride safe.

Welcome and kudos on the bike, yes take it easy until your comfortable on the scoot. Good catch Outerbanks on the clutch cable...I see the same thing.
Ride like you mean it.

Hope you enjoy your new bike theyre very nice...nearly as nice as the speedmasters......in my predudiced view.Just one thing though if you use heavy winter gloves watch the throttle boss I can only get on with mine with thin summer gloves...can be a little interesting when glove and t.boss make unexpected contact!

Thank you. I agree but I placed the mirrors so I could see in back.
