No problems for me yet. I have about 15 hours on mine. Check your lug nuts when you get it mine were loose and it ate my rim up. Also the water pump makes a noise when its cold. Hopefuly this will not be a problem

Well thats not to bad... I heard about the rim thing, I read your post. Well the water pump might not be a problem, because it gets hot in Nevada, yet when I ride up here, it will be a problem but its only noise. thanks for the quick reply.

I havent had any problems with mine. The subframe is somewhat fragile, being cast alluminum.

Most common motor mods are intake, exhaust and programmer. The stock fuel management does not adjust for mods.

Aside from that, I put a twist throttle and 6 pack rack on right away along with paddles. I found out real quick that this bike is a wheelie machine, so i put a longer swingarm on.

i have had mine for about a month now. the only problem i am haveing with mine is the chain was binding up when i was playing in the mud. i tightend up the chain. seemed to fix the problem for a while but it still does it once and a while. i still have my warrenty on it so i will be bringing it in soon to be fixed if it is still an issue. i just orderd rear tires for it. i wont be getting them till tomorrow so i will have to wait to find out. they are gators. 25-12-9 so it will give a little more ground clearnce. also just orderd a tuner for it.
