      Ill have to snap a couple tonight. It was getting dark by the time I thought about it last night.

      Ive been looking at a taller windshield and some risers. Im not sure that the stock muffler is on it or not, I havent gotten that close yet. It sounds good, and inst too loud, but you can hear it pretty good when you get the revs up.

      Going from my big cruiser to this is a big difference. Its so easy to throw around into turns, and I feel much more comfortable in traffic and the highways on it.

            Yeah. I'm liking it so far. Keeping the fairing but with a taller windshield.

              They came on naked models too you can find the parts to convert it to a nakid bike but the fairing on that bike isn't bad and it grows on ya after a bit. I like it better than the later model "bug eyed" bandits.

                  Shouldn't be an issue as I doubt it has enough power to lift off

                    The 1200 is really easy to wheelie

                        I had an 07 GSX-R 750 and use to go on long rides and hit the canyons with (had 31K when I sold it). Must be age because my wrists and back started to hurt after owning the bike for 4+ years.

                        I sold it and bought me a 2005 Honda VFR. Couldnt be any happier. Bike is still fast (800cc's), still fun in the canyons, looks good, has a fuel gauge, and most importantly its super comfortable.
