It's an amazing bike and really handles nicely in the city and on the highway. The only place it has trouble is on gravel/dirt roads, the old CB650 seemed to handle those a lot better.
This is a 'sport' bike but the power is not really comparable with proper Super Sport bikes, even though it looks it. The fairings and windshield really help a lot on the highway. My neck is a lot less stressed when I finish a couple hundred kilometres of cruising. The riding position is also mostly upright, although less so than the CB650. It is not at all leaned forward like Sport Bikes such as the CBR600, R6, etc..
Anyway, enough of that. I did buy a tailbag and some other small things for this bike. I've already put 2,000km on it and I plan to put on many more this summer. The next step is finding a week or two of vacation and crossing the country.
Also, there is (supposedly) a GoPro Hero HD Video Camera in the mail. It is a month or more late. I am not impressed... BUT hopefully you will be impressed when I upload sexy 720p HD videos of my trip.
