Don't get TOO excited.. I know its an all new bike and all, but first year bikes tend to have teething problems. Hope they got all of them worked out before they released it.
Its a cool bike though, regardless.

I had heard that a Vegas dealership, the one that sponsors Hart got closer to 12K for the first one and the 2nd was at 10K. Maybe if I hit a big payout on a slot machine and went straight to the dealership with the cash.

So I have to say I love the bike so far. The power on it is really strong yet really smooth. There was absolutely no hesitation when you twisted the throttle and I couldnt get the thing to bog at all in the deep sand we were riding in. The front tire sucks for the sand I was riding in but I found some wet tacky dirt around a water hole and made a few rut turns around it and it turns really well. I didnt have any problems with the suspesion at all, it stayed straight in deep sand whoops and tracked really well on hard packed square egded sections coming out of corners. Overall its one of the best stock bikes Ive ever thrown a leg over. Now I just have to hope that there are not any quirks or problems with the bike later down the line. I hope my good ole rule of thumb (If it didnt blow up in the first 10 minutes then its good) is accurate here. haha.

I didnt get any pictures yesterday but I will this weekend and Ill try to post them Monday.
