Thumper, your still the man. Good to hear you've had good luck with the new version of the Lt. I haven't been fortunate enough to ride one but have heard good things. The KFX is a good bike but the question wasn't about a KFX, the issues with the LT have been ironed out. OF course there will be people that will still have issues with the bike, in general.
Tolo3, it is a great bike and has lots of after market parts available. I hope this was helpful, it seems that asking a question hasn't changed, for some reason someone always wants to argue their own point about their issues. Write back and let the folks know what bike you went with and how it is working for you.

 

Hey guys I did end up with the LTR and I took it out last sunday and I loved it thanks for all your comments........

 

Good stuff!
