Yup, perfect bike for the 115 lb. 5 foot 2 wife.  She can flat-foot the bike! This $3999 bike has a lot of features I'm jealous of, very jealous.....  Sporty clip ons, a real fairing mounted cluster, with, get this, a fuel gauge. The linkage shifter has avery nice positive feel and it is very easy to hit neutral.   Every little detail looks really really good for the price.  You can tell this bike was built with a lot more pride than my 09 GS, which makes me sad...The styling is just excellent, it's like a 8/10 scale super sport LOL.  Too small for me!  I'm 6 foot tall/150 lbs and if I lay on the tank I don't fit behind the windscreen.   I feel like a big doof on a toy when riding this thing!  Very light and easy to handle, seems like it's gonna be a blast in the twisties...  Can't believe this little bike has a 13,000 RPM redline.  I have no idea how powerful it is yet, gotta break it in first!  So far not super impressed with bottom end power or throttle response, although I'm sure the top end will be fun.  Soon as I get the tire scrubbed the wife is gonna start terrorizing the local parking lots!  The GS feels like a rocket compared to this thing, which is cool becuz it helps calm the yearning for a supersport.  If my bike ever feels slow, I can ride the ninjette!  Although, the bike is about to get a custom vinyl pink star graphic kit....  :icon_eek:  I will put those pics up 2moro hopefully....
