Oh ok. [up]
1. Rock'n roll! theres no another word to describe it. 4-months, 7k miles, and the indling sound on redlights still brings the grin on my face... or then its just the 4th gear burnout and spiderbait on ipod...
2. Correct me if im wrong, but few harley guys told me that its more of a "feature". Adviced me to give it a steady 1.5k rpm on takeoffs and slip the clutch instead "pumping the gas". Also, when you master it, it sounds awsome!
3. wait a while... and the limiter kicks in way too soon...
4. i think thats plain stock. For me, theres plastic clips ontop of the airbox where the hose clips in, the it goes to the inside of the frame, and connects to the fuelvapor catchcan beheind battery (tho, i riped the can off).
5. Yeap, trans vent, mine is zippet too, and i think its stock.
6. There are some quickrelease kits, but personaly, i rarely need to take the seat off.
7. Be prepared that your local loctite dealer is going to send a gift basket to you on next christmas.
Loctite it, screw it in by hand, and give it a small torq whit wrench.

Yeah Carl0s I'm loving it. Sounds like a Harley; looks like a crotch rocket. Really confuses people in a good way.
#2 that's basically what I've been doing.
I've restricted myself from riding it as much this past week or so until my missing side air scoops arrive. Where I ordered from is Sloooooow.
