Sorry for the limited info but the roads are still covered in sand and salt and there is still snow on the ground.
Did the mototune method and changed the oil. The oil change was quick but I had to remove the left side faring. They made it simple and quick to remove it. For those doing it the first time make sure to disconnect the drain hoses before taking the faring all the way off or you will break the clip that holds them. After the oil change I got a quick ride in before the rain hit.
Bike pulls very nicely and power is very very smooth. Bike was very flick-able based on the corners and clover leafs I hit. Power starts to come on nicely above 8000 rpm. The power felt better coming out of corners shifting a bit before red line as opposed to shifting at red line.
The tranny was very smooth both on up and down shifts. The bike is very comfortable to ride normally. I did not feel any fueling imperfections in fact it was spot on no matter what I did and cold starting was also trouble free.
No tire issues and I did not prep them in any way just dropped the pressure.
No comment on the brakes as I need more time to get them bedded in.
My complaints
I do not like the rear sets especially the shifter side. I can't explain it but they did not feel right to me and I could not get comfortable.
Also the throttle has more side to side play than I like.
The only other issue was the factory over lubed the chain and fling was way bad.
I also want to thank the dealer for only putting a teaspoon of gas in. Thank God the gas station was so close and down hill.
Once Comeback gets back to me on the rear shim height I will start to dial the bike in.
