Picked up my new, to me since it is an '08 with 6000 miles, Wee in Ohio today and rode it the 360 miles home.
I was surprised how smooth it was. No vibration problems at all.
Averaged 55 mpg. And uses regular.
A bit cramped for my 34 inch inseam, meaning my legs were bent more than I prefer. I will raise the bars an inch, drop the pegs an inch and have Spencer pad and build up the seat about a half inch and it should be perfecto.
The seat was better than my ST, but needs a little Spencer magic.
People on the Strom forum discuss windshields to no end (sound familiar?). I had virtually no problem with the stock setup and may just leave it alone.
It sure flips through curves real nice and fun.
When I paddled it around my garage, I thought I was Charles Atlas.
I missed my heated gear. My first farkle will be a power let.
I am a happy guy who made a good choice. The ST will be my long tour bike for as long as possible. The Wee will be my fun bike while I set it up to be my long term bike when the ST outgrows my old bones to keep me riding and attending events well into my 70's, Lord willing.
