Definitely new and starting off controversial.  I bought the first available at Mesa Verde Motorsports in Cortez, Colorado.  I am breaking it in in the mountain roads both paved and dirt.  The suspension is dialed in. Getting 80 MPG on the first tank of gas.

The built in luggage/helmet compartment is very convenient.  I now have 150 miles on it and am looking forward to burning off the risk of "infant mortality."  After the first oil change at 1000 miles I plan on taking it across the Navajo reservation to Flagstaff.

I got one because I thought it looked cool. The hard rev limiter is outright dangerous if you are used to riding other bikes. It is just unexplainable. It is slow, heavy, and the supsension feels unrefined but it just plain makes me happy. It feels pretty light, seems to suit a smaller rider (me) and is a fun bike that gets awesome gas mileage. i am going to get the rear trunk so I can use it for light touring and occasional commuter duty.
