Try two weeks, mod it, use it two more weeks and park it. That's what happened to me with my 07 YFZ. Don't ever use it, thing has only gone thru 6 gas tanks. Sad think is I paid it off, a little over 10k after all said and done including a $1300 3 year maintenance/warranty and have only changed the oil twice on it which riminds me i need to take it in before it runs out of warranty lol. Probably'll wind up let it go for next to nothing.

hahaha, sometimes I wish I would have done just that and at least would have enjoyed it more. But then again, truck doesn't get any use either, kinda got tired of it just sitting there too lol.

i took your advice. so far i love it. hopefully after some clutch mods i will like it more than the griz 700

yep. i already found nyrocatv. so far ive found TONS of info on this thing. ive only had it up to 65mph on the speedo but i know i was going faster due to the 27" tires. im doing the 2mm shim mod along with a yellow clutch spring to bring the power down some. theres no need for a bike this big/heavy to go that fast.
