Buzzy engine, boring-looking front end, and windscreen that is too high to allow the wind to prop up your chest on long distances.

downshifting, my bike doesn't like that until you get really low in the RPMs. Then I remember I am not riding a sportbike anymore.

Mirrors vibrate to point of uslessness at any RPM above 0. Gets a little warm at slow speeds, but that's just cause it wants to GO!

the lack of a center stand makes chain maintenence annoying (shut up Trip)

though I recently fixed that:

I still like having a center stand for oil changes and such

Cutty72 · 09-01-2009, 10:11 AM

I just use a rear stand.

I am still getting use to this center stand nonsense. I don't have a chain and oil changes for me are every 6000, so I don't need it too often. I need to figure out what I need to get to change the front tire.

I hate that my bike is sitting in a junk yard. Piece of crap.
