opinions anyone
i had a tall airblade screen - didnt like the look and changed it for a DB.
cant honestly tell the difference on the motorway with windblast

Very nice! I rode one - it didn't feel any faster than the 650 unless you were looking at the clocks, so be careful, its deceptively fast. I found the vibes were worse through the bars, but not uncomfortably so. I also thought it felt a lot more "poised" than my 650, but this could have been due to my squared off tyres.

Really nice bike overall, don't know why they didn't sell so well.
