No, still just as sweet as the day I rode her off the lot, It just does'nt seem like a bike that's not even a year old should stop running....If it was a car, you would never hear the end of it...I was venting a little I guess, as there is ALOT of competiton here at work between bikes and their owners...I did an awful lot of braggin, and now have to eat ALOT of crow!!!
