And boy is she sweet! First gear, omg...has one!! LOL. And a much bigger friction zone compared to the 650! I cannot wait to give her a thorough polish. Hit scattered rain drops on the way to get her and back but nothing that was a big deal. She's a 2013, with 5800 miles and fully loaded as you can see. I've named her princess :)

And now, at last....for some pictorial evidence!

A couple more photos of Princess now that I remember how to load them. Turns out I'm pretty flat footed so we think maybe she has already been lowered. I may do some scooping from the front of the seat though to make it a bit narrower.

Thanks guys and gals - I already love her. First gear is so damn tall compared to the 650. Plenty of power on the highway and otherwise rides and feels pretty much like the 650 - a little heavier to be sure, but the suspension is awesome. So comfortable!
