I think that is a GOOD safety feature. People have dumped their bikes and the bike gets stuck WOT. Not good!!!

Yeah, but it sucks if it won't reset (you pick up the bike, it has nothing serious wrong with it, but you can't ride it home).

Well, so far I have about 50 miles on the bike. It literally had 1 mile on it when I picked it up.

So far I freaking love this bike. It handles incredibly and seems to fit my short frame well. It sits way more aggressively than the Katana did so my body will have to get used to that a bit.

The only negative thing I have to say about it is the headlights. Now dont get me wrong, I think its a cool look (having only one light on with low beams) but in the 50 miles I have driven I have been told 5 times while at stop signs and what not that I have a headlight out.

yeah, I posted a few posts down from my original message that I refused delivery of the GSXR1000. Insurance was higher than I wanted and I felt the sales guy pressured me into a bike I really didnt want.

I was looking at the CBR for a while.

Dude, you can't go wrong with the CBR.

I like the propane-fueled bike in the background too

Purty bike Kudos for not letting the salesman talk you into a ride you weren't 100% sure you wanted. Let us know what your impression of it is, once you get some smiles on her! Ride safe!
