It's been awhile since I've owned a 2 stroke.
Still haven't put gas in it yet lol
This is the first new bike that I've bought since 1999.
And it will need to be around for a long time which is why i bought this one.

My local dealer was great to deal with in tilbury, Ontario.

Thanks guy Smile

You're going to hate it. That thing will awful things to you; it will make you learn to conserve energy, carry momentum and pick different lines. You'll find that it has an annoying habit of literally leaping out of the corners when you pin the throttle and dump the clutch. And, it is so light and has so much less reciprocating mass that you'll be moving it around in the air, seemingly just by thinking about it. Man, I really feel for you when the time comes to rebuild the thing.... just when you think you have finally found a way to rid your wallet of all that annoying cash, the repair will turn out to be 1/3 the cost of what you expected.
