I rode one today at my dealer. It had 10 miles on it.

Feels relatively light and shifted butter smooth, brakes were excellent also. Not a lot of torque down low and had a dead spot in 2nd gear right around 3-4K rpm.

Took it down some windy back roads and it felt great. I only wish the tires were scrubbed in so I could see how it felt leaned over more.

It was only a 10 mile ride and my wrists were sore by the time I got back. Heli-Bars will be selling a lot of bars for these bikes. Although there didn't look to be much clearance at the top of the fairing.

They have a dual clutch bike also, but it isn't set up yet. I'll take that out next time.
