Had one of these out this weekend... in lieu of the "R" version not being completely assembled yet...
All i can say is WOW. Never thought I'd find a bike that feels LIGHTER than my monster. As soon as funding works itself out...

also.. the SOUND. amazing. even with stock exhaust it sounded so different than anything of the sort. i'm in love.



and the R that I will likely be buying (only $1700 more!?!?)
When all the land lays in ruin... And burnination has forsaken the countryside... Only one guy will remain... My money's on...

A mechanic I work with has one of these... well his wife does, but he steals it all the time to ride it.

SLIGHTLY hoping then when i go to buy, the 2012 model year will maybe hopefully include an all-black "R"...
doubtful, but one can hope ;D

My people skills are just fine.
It's my tolerance to idiots that needs work.

My son is in the army and has a 675, when he cannot bring his bike home he rides my Duc whilst he is here.
He tells me he slightly favors the 675, although having a Dad with a Monster is not bad back-up  [thumbsup]
Best of both worlds I guess.
