Oh Ken, didn't your mommy tell you when you were growing up, "It's not how big your pencil is son, it's how you write your name!" :loveit:

Thanks Phoo. Have a few more miles on it now. Really like the motor, strong down low and pulls good, but! It is geared with a 15 up front. I ordered a 14 to try out thinking it will make slow speed riding much easier and less clutch work. I went to a power line south of Annapolis and snuck on it. Bike worked well, but a little slower 1st and second would be perfect for fire roads and trails. With the 15, it cruises at 80 well down in the rev range, so the 14 should work out very similar to the 1 tooth I dropped on the Ducati Desert Sled. Nice and low in 1st and second but able to comfortably cruise on the interstate at 80 if I want and run up to triple digit speeds with no problem. Can't wait to try that!

This bike is so much smoother than my previous ADV bike (GS F800ADV), going off road feels normal and natural on this bike even if it is kinda tall. Would be perfect for a long legged mofo like a Phoo or Kyler! But it isn't any worse than other bikes I have had, so we short leg fucks persevere!
