Got out on my local route yesterday. It was hitting low 90s but not bad overall. I got the bike good and hot and it never overheated, so that's good. I put about 60 miles on it and my confidence is growing in this bike. The engine seems to be holding up to an hour+ straight of 10k and I flushed the oil right after and it seemed pretty clean. I think I would benefit from a 130 tire on the back; that 120 squirms a lot. Gosh, good luck finding 16" sport tires anymore though. I'll run this down to the threads. I was also surprised to discover that the original speedometer is not as inaccurate as I had suspected, it seems to be about 5mph optimistic up around 60-70mph. I can account for that.
