The weather is getting nice now so I guess that is inspiring me to revisit this blog. I've been riding the bike pretty regularly through the winter and spring now and I have to say I have not been disappointed at all.

The bike comfortable and shields my from the weather much better than my KLR ever did. I've done a bit of off roading and it feels fine though I wish I had the lower gearing sometimes like the GSA has but at 75mph in E (6th) it runs at 3500 rpm. Very smooth.

The gas mileage isn't as hot as the KLR. I'm getting about 35 around town where the KLR was closer to 45 but I think on the road I should be getting closer to 40 so I hear. The range on it could be an issue but I have plans for that.

So far I've dumped it once, in a parking lot, and didn't have much trouble getting it back up which I was afraid of.
