Actually a great bike

My first review of this bike was slanted and so I decided to give it a second chance. This bike IS comfortable even to a big guy like me. Everything is in perfect reach, especially the clip-ons which still maintain the sporty appearance but are very easy to reach. The instrument cluster is just that, the clock missing is just a small gripe, just do what I do, and buy a watch - a cheap one, though. Also the omission of a fuel gauge isn't that big of a deal, I calculated a 57 MPG riding through horrifying daily commute traffic and about 68 on horrifying weekend riding. Very sporty, nobody assumes its a 250, but they're also morons that can't drive. Speed is enough to hurt yourself if you don't take the power seriously, like I almost did. Only thing is don't drop it, it costs quite a penny to just get a new fairing, which actually is the downside to any sportbike. 4 star performance because 600s will eat it alive. Though I wish I could lock my helmet up without melting or warping it on the exhaust

Upgrades/Accessories:  Preparing to order flush mount III style front turn signals, rear turn signals moved to empty spaces, eliminated fender, lowered risers for sporty look and feel, and muzzy stainless exhaust eventually.
