I must add that Heimish from Darbi's changed a few settings on the back and it felt way better today. Thanks for that!

Mate there is nothing wrong with your bike, It is just not set up for you.
People can wank on about this brand and that, Thay are all as good/bad as each other, what one man likes, another may not.

That is the trouble with the internet, some people no enough information to actually be Dangerous, unless you are capable of adjusting things correctly yourself and fully understand and are a little bit mechanical, this place can be to funny.

If you want a watch, go to a Jewler Get my point

Looks like I should just keep my opinions to myself before I become an asshole

Dude, Stop talking like that. Its a good bike. Nuff said!?
Would have been good to get you on a Honda, but you still have a very nice machine there. Just get it set up for your weight and style of riding and everything will be sweet.
Oh and dont believe everything you read on the net.

Hence my last Post, things come out of my mouth and off the ends of my fingers at a key board that fast some times, it is very easy for myself to get into trouble
