I have to concur.  I'm right around 2500 on my blue as well.  Even the shift
is like buttah' now that I'm in the habit of running the revs up to 5K or
more esp. in 1st.

I'm amazed to think that the "old hands" tell us it just keeps on getting
better!

I'm still dialing mine in, but I like the back end now.  Front is still a
bit sloppy, but improving as I crank those screws in.  FYI I'm 205 wearing
my dressed and in my boots.

No need because you're in good company.  My experience in tech support (many
years, and many years ago) was that you normally only hear about the bad.
It's nice to hear the good for a change.
