Con grats man!!! I just rode my girl home and I will say awesome for sure! She's got 14R torque and 10R handling......well fat 10R lol but great ride for sure.....I have to do my tweeks but she will be amazing for real.....honestly make my other bikes seem like toys...holy shit I said it!!!! After riding only 8 miles she's amazing! But GR if I were you bring painters tape because after only 8 miles with my Denisie leather jacket I scuffed my fuel tank to the point that I'm not sure I can get the marks out....they are not bad but if your OCD son of a bitch like me it drives me nuts! Lol

Thanks So much guys really appreciate it! Here's two more good ones...... So last night I started making her mine by adjusting her the way I like my bikes and taking off the reflectors n such....I actually blead the front brakes because they seemed a little squishy like there was air in there....no big deal after bleeding them. I run EBC double sinter HH pads and love the way they bite hard and fast.....whatever is in her now doesn't so Im going to send a e mail to EBC to see if they have anything that would fit her.....

She feels just a little more relaxed than the 10R....you can stretch out some but still racy....

Just this one for now..hell...you guys have been slammed with H2 pics!Hopefully,ride tomorrow.

First impression though...well...I have to think a bit on this machine.My GOD it's VERY VERY cool.Haven't ridden her yet...BUT...I did install my Shorai...and fired her up here..you know,it's hard to explain really the sound this MOTOR is making...I don't mean the SC.Just the sound.And not the exhaust.I have to say just now...this engine has a solidness and smoothness to it that almost CAN'T be explained.I honestly couldn't hear ANY mechanical noise emanating from the motor,just a smooth responsive engine(almost surreal actually).I'll take a gopro of her running soon.See how that turns out.But LIVE...IDK...just SO DAMN smooth and responsive just sitting here and blipping it to like 4K or so.Amazing.I'm SO hooked;)Sitting on her,she does feel...good.Not small.Have to ride her though and really get a ride feel.ALL the components on this bike are visibly top quality.It feels VERY light to move around.The clutch feels a shade stiffer than a 14,but barely.THERE IS NO VIBRATION.It feels ....solid.The teensy bit of shifting I did to move it and such,without the motor running was snickish and very positive feeling.It clicked right into 1st(with motor running)and almost without any clunk we're used to on our 14's.VERY nice.I should say..the bike did not jerk at all,it was a solid,lightish shift into first.Supposed to be good out tomorrow..GoPro coming along....

It does fell more sporty than my 14,ergos wise,but not uncomfortably.The bars feel a bit lower.It feels good to be able to be sitting in the ride position and be able to see the nose clearly and the road.It's very cool.

Lucky man. That looks very nice. Must be cool to have the two baddest beasts sitting side by side. I'm looking forward to the vid....but I still can't watch vids. I guess I'll have to wait.
