Picked this up last week. Immediately replaced all of the fluids and plugs. Took it out today for a canyon trip to scrub the edge of the tires in. Wasn't a great day. The road I picked (a new one for me) was damn awful. Literally everything that could've gone wrong with the road did. Piles of sand in the corners, groups of tar snakes so big that I actually think someone just spilled tar on the road, spilled paint in turns, huge gaping holes, oil slick... Ugh.
It's been quite a learning experience trying to adapt to an I4 coming from an SV650. I'm still keeping the RPMs low in turns for now (3rd gear at 45-50mph) as I'm not quite used to a powerband yet, but I am learning, and enjoying the experience.
There's a lot of little mods on this guy, I'm not sure I could list them all, but it's a great machine!
