What a wonderful problem to have.  Too many bikes for the garage.

Thanks everyone!  I was able to get it out of city limits today and let it stretch it legs.  WOW.  Whole different monster than I am used to!  My FJR 1300 has similar HP but does not come close to the torque that this thing has!  What an absolute hoot to ride!  My wife asked how I liked  it and I told her "It pulls nice from 4,000 - 7,000, things get really interesting from 7,000 - 9,000, and 9,000 - 11,000 is downright scary!"  Oh how much fun we are gonna have!   [Dolph]
