I was able to take a second ride today as the weather cooperated nicely today. I am starting to think it's maybe a little quiet for my liking but I will still give it some time before I mod the exhaust. I was a little timid the last time I rode as coming from a '94 ultra classic so the power still feels immense. Low end torque it's very much to my liking many roads in my area are twisties with lots of hills. I found that roll on power if I needed to slow to around 40 in a corner while not grab the seat of your pants it was quite acceptable in overdrive. Tried 4th gear at around 40 and the response was incredible when compared to 5th gear or even my Harley.smoothest machine I've ever ridden , even smoother than my wife's accord...maybe.my only complaint at 6'1" would be wind. However a taller windscreen will fix that. Overall I am very impressed with this machine and can see myself on a full blown wing when (if) I grow up.
