Make sure the rear wheel bearing isn't covered by the recall.  If it is make
sure they have fixed it.  I had mine repaired before I accepted the bike.
Othere than that I can't think of anything.  I am a big fan of the rear
rack with top box in place of the soft bags.  I have the hard bags for
longer journeys but for commuting and locking the helmet on the bike
the top box is hard to beat.
