45 More Grins Per Mile UPDATE

It's fully broken in and running really well after meticulously following the break-in rpms. 46 mpg is typical for my riding style. I did extra oil changes at 250, 600 (service) and 1150. I will follow the schedule now. The rear tire is wearing fast. I'm now running 30+ pounds of pressure to help on road wear - also it helps the front end feel better when braking. So far 98% road riding and will air down off road - with nerf bars now ready to try more. I adjusted the shock to 4th position as I am heavy and occasionally take on a rider. I will back down to 3, but like the adjust-ability. I'm looking into a bigger wind screen for 55+mph riding and long term a more contoured seat, though the seat to me is cushioned well...just a shape thing.

Upgrades/Accessories:  Now installed! SW-Motech nerf bars, skid plate, center stand, rack deck. Denali LED light kit and large Coocase topcase with LED running, brake lights, remote lock & rear master cylinder protector. I found enough room underseat for all the extra wiring. I love the look of the trimmer aluminum Skid plate and nerf bars! I love the topcase for commuting and ease to carry stuff. I park next to a BMW GS1200 everyday and am very happy when I think about the value of what I have.
