Ok, I never rode a 08, so I can't compare. The 09 CR felt great. It is way different than every XB I have ever ridden. It was fine running around at low speeds. I was doing about 3k for most of my riding on the demo. It felt a lot weaker down low than the XB12's. After about 5 or 6k RPM it is nice and puts down a lot of power. I never got a chance to fully test it because of the demo ride speeds, but overall I am happy with it. Actually as odd as it sounds, my biggest complaint was that it revs too fast. It revs and sounds like an I4 bike. When I squeeze the clutch to up shift, it drops down to idle before my foot can move the shifter! My XB has perfect timing, by time I get it in the next gear; it’s about at where it needs to be for a smooth clutch release. I am sure it is something I would get used to in time.
I will put a deposit down the instant it’s available with 3 standard hard bags and all translucent blue plastics/wheels  |

Are you guys serious when you say it needs "guns" on the side, and do you actually want a motorcycle that looks like a "Transformer"? I just want to make sure I'm reading these comments correctly. |
