In depth

History:	Bought new in March 2008 from Moto Sports in Des Moines, IA. Ordered it from DNA.
Modifications:	Full Termi system, DP tall smoked windshield, competition werks fender eliminator kit, Sargent seat, DP pressure plate, speedy moto cover. Carbon Fibre side panels. Removed charcoal canister.
Problems:	None.
Comments:	The thing that surprised me most about this bike was the suspension. I read the glowing reviews of the Ohlins parts, but I was skeptical as to the difference. After a few minutes riding it, I began to notice how I did not notice the bumps in the road. Expansion joints, ruts, dips, the Ohlins soak them up and leave you to focus on the ride. I did drive with the stock exhaust and thought it sounded great. Not too loud nor too quiet. The Termi's are loud without baffles, but too quiet with them in. But they do sound fantastic opened up. I liked how the readout on the dash changed from SBK 1098 to 1098 Racing Evo when you turn on the ignition with the new ECU. Flawless fuel mapping and absolutley marvelous engine performance at all RPM's.
