I have one!. Got her 2 weeks ago and really like this bike.
I don't think there is anything NOT to like, just get one ( if you can , there seems to be waiting lists in many countries).
Regards to all .......Stay safe.

How does the new fancy progressive clutch feel in the real world (ie. not a mag article, where the truth is sometimes lost )?

I would descibe the clutch as either in or out. There isn't a whole lot of feel to it. The only real world problem is the bike is high geared, meaning a certain amount of slip is required. Some people are changing the front sprocket to lower the overall gearing, which will help the takeoff situation.

well...have 700 miles on mine. I like the bike. Does everything I expected. Handles well, responsive in traffic etc. Power is good...although it is a good bit slower than my last bike ..a yamahaFJ1200. There is nothing about it that jumps out as needing work/upgrades...except the mufflers..too quiet..but I just fixed that!

wholey crapola. i forgot i posted this, and here today...voila!

thanks for the feedback. gearing and exhaust seem to be the two cross-the-board duc upgrades so i was expecting something along those lines. i'm gonna try and find a dealer around here who has one and try and take 'er out.
