Cool - what is the expected delivery date?

The problem is with the centerstand - not the sidestand. The new models
have two stops welded close to the stand where it mates with the frame. For

Well, you can't beat that for a recommendation....

>I think the problems have been well covered, erratic gas gauge, sidestand
recall, recall for case bolts, availability of optional accessories.

That about covers it - all in all the problems have been minor.

The joy and excitement felt when twisting the wick will soon make you
forget about all else though....
