Well got rained out but it was worth it now cleaning her up and removing stickers and front reflectors man when this bike gets unlocked what a rocket it will be with only 3hrs of seat time it's no joke better at everything then it's predecessor so smooth and effortless to go fast quickshifter is a delight very nimble once up to speed stayed cool even after hitting triple digits without even trying and braking was so much better then my 08 gen 2 my zx-14s were heat monsters will for sure need risers gel seat lowered pegs exhaust and taller windscreen maybe even lowered but all stuff we all get and she will be top notch. Hopefully put some more time in tomorrow as well but so far very impressed!

Nice!!!! I put 425 miles yesterday rode her mostly in the rain back to NY.. this is 1st motorcycle that I felt the most confident in the rain. Better than my k1300 due to lower ride height I guess and the s22tires are good!! Also the traction control at full setting was quiet helpful... I felt the same abt the grips a bit narrow..and quick shifter was slightly notchy in power mode A, need to play with the settings.. overall came home safely...

Can anybody with a gen3, please have a look and advise on the front brake line? Does it have that stupid link hose around the rear of the front guard, or have they changed it to a Y design under the nosecone? And if it's a Y design, any chance of a pic or 2 on line routing to the calipers? Thanks.

I'll have a look this evening.... I think they are the same as the final run 2013 onward Gen2 bikes but I'll confirm a UK spec bike later

Were you on 95 in MD yesterday? Saw someone riding north on 95 and It was my first time seeing a Gen 3 in person and it was a beautiful bike.
