Picked my GEN 3 up a few weeks ago...

[ArabianOak]

Put about 200 miles on her so far. Really smooth, great quickshifter, great power. Pretty comfy but I wish the bars were slightly higher...

Only one issue so far...I stalled it trying to mess with the hill assist and the bike would not restart for a few minutes. I spoke to the dealer about it and he said he would keep an ear open for anyone else experiencing it. Hopefully just a one off electrical gremlin.

What does a T-rex and a hayabusa get you....OH just a NSX! I see you matching that red color to her well done sir. Gen 3 bar risers on ebay for 150 fyi...

Best color combo, IMHO

Thanks for the info about the bar risers...just ordered the 27mm ones!

Lovely bike. Are you going to swap exhaust?

I think I will eventually, but the slip on's are crazy money. It is very quiet though.

 

[Walris]

Think full exhaust ultimately better value. But your bike is a serious beauty!!!!

Yep, that's a sharp bike....the silver hides the chrome accent pretty well....

Just wondering ArabianOak and xxbirdowner with running in did the dealers recommend certain RPMs ?
How have ya's treated your machines?

No sir...i havent really gotten on it yet though...I break all of my stuff in the same way though...go easy the first 30-40 miles and then gradually increase rpm etc. I am fairly certain there are lots of forged internals on this new design...so I wouldnt worry about breaking anything.

What did it sound like when you tried to restart it?

I picked up mine and went straight to top up the tank, and when I was done I hit the start button and it made the strangest noise for several seconds. I waited about a minute then she fired up normally. I've had hot restart issues with my 07 Busa, but this time the bike was barely warm. Hopefully just a one off thing... It hasn't happened again, but it sure made for an embarrassing sight at the gas station!!

@ArabianOak , first mod. you need on day one =

it was a weird noise on my end as well...like a sticking starter...
