more or less. small throttle issues below 4k rpm, but over 4.5k rpm the thing is a freaking beast. literally wants to lift the front off the ground, and this is just a 600! Yesterday I put plates on it, new front turn signals to make it street legal (old ones were broken off), took her for a spin. Today was bath day. Oh, and it is EXCESSIVELY loud. Rivals harleys but sounds good compared to them
So far, the bike cost me $1000, $300 in parts, $151 for plates, tags, registration, and $65/6 months of liability/uninsured motorist insurance. so.... not bad for $1600
And yes, I have full gear, head to toe
