Jim, you and some others would likely have a better idea then I. In my case I owned 2 of them and put about 20k miles on them combined. I didn't find them poor handlers or brakers at that time...

I can only hope that this is at the end of the cruiser parade... otherwise I'm hoping his Busa, the GSXR's (as well as the other bikes) are repo'd.
