Just done a few days on one.

Very civilized compared to the previous models ridden.

As tasty as you would expect.

Speed Triple has better bottom end - Brute has longer legs.

That is one Sexy Bike! I'm not sold on the Headlight! But I think overall that is a minor Detail! How is the Torque and Hp compared to a Cyclone? The riding Position looks similar, Since you have put some miles on one, What do you think? Lucky Man!

Yes, you are a lucky man. Now, only if they will let you try that 1090 for a couple days too..........

I sat on one of those. Closes ergonomics to my lighting I've seen. Liked it a lot. Pricey though.

I haven't done any research - I'm not doing the test (I have a Aprilia Shiver) but it 'feels' like it's got better than 130 ponies.

Low torque is OK but I didn't get to tap it out on the time I had it. It rev you long time.

Ergos are cyclone-ish.

Agree about the headlight. The longer I lived with it the more prominent it appeared.
