First Ride and First Impressions! (Patreon)

I had a chance to take the bike out today and share some of my thoughts and feelings about the platform.  Overall, its a really fun bike to ride.  It has a ton of character, plenty of performance and its a comfortable riding position.

A few things I've noticed that I want to try and improve is the head shake of the front end.  I think adding an Ohlins black line steering damper will help with that.

I also noticed some inconsistencies with the quick shifter.  This could be as simple as the gearbox still breaking in but you'll have to let me know if you guys who have monsters have ever noticed this.  I think the exhaust and flash will help with this as well.

With all that said, I'm very excited to share build plan ideas with you guys in the next episode and get feedback from you guys.  I truly think this could be one of our best builds we've done and I can't wait to get started!
