The stock seat is worst I ever sat on, so I upgraded. Everything else is fine as expected, but I purchased new. I also added riser inserts ($30) for a slightly better upright riding position that allowed me to keep the stock cables. Maybe the previous owner did something that is affecting...
I leave the side door to the garage open and hang a spare opener on a tucked away ladder next to the door. Leave the bike running and dismount. Walk 10 feet and open the door.
Rode to the gym on our first cold day of the season where it dipped into the 60s this morning. I noticed my bike runs around 189* in the cool weather and the touring Dunlops have slightly harder compund and behave differently than the OEMs.

Should have class leading power because it has class leading displacement. The Ninja twin is a 296cc and the Honda CBR single is 286.
Yamaha is making a statement with it's new lines. I think they leapfrogged Honda and only have to deal with Kawasaki. Will Yamaha release a large touring...
