I definitely 2nd this motion unless you have an abundance of disposable cash at hand and do not care about the financial side. Stats for new bike owners indicate that the bike is guaranteed to be dropped within the 1st 90 days givin the amt of time spent on the bike, the condition of the roads, and or the technical aspects of the rider making last minute decisions.

In your words, a POS should be considered and then the upgrade.

Good luck!
