Thanks for the warm welcome. I am definitely enjoying the new ride but can't wait for the break in period so I can really see what kind of power it has. I only have 145 miles on it since last saturday. The ride home from the dealer was 90 miles and I got dumped on with a thunder storm just 5 minutes after leaving the dealer. Nothing like breaking in new tires on a new bike in the rain. Back tire slide out on every turn. My user name is doughboy but I do not make pizza and I wish it was because I had a lot of money. I am a pastry chef and have been teaching at the Culinary Institute of America for 11 years. I did find out about the fuel pump recall before I picked up the bike from the dealer and they said they replaced it. I'll get some pics up soon

Chef, it seems like fate hits the worst when embarking on a maiden ride. Chaserz had a similar 'adventure' haha! My hubb & me picked the bike up at zero degrees temperature. Great ride, but brrrr, what a cold one.

Anyway, enjoy your Vmax, because on a sunny day & dry tarmac you can really bring out the beast (in you)
