Picked my Mako up today. Rode it 100 miles home. Did the 50 mph for the first 50 miles. I did notice more ticking at idle and  lower speeds but once up to speed it seemed fine.  :nixweiss:

All of my concerns faded away once I started the ride home. This is a sweet ride.  :drink:

The badge in the seat is non forgiving. If not for that, the seat would be fine for now IMO.

I did have Reinhart slip ons added before I left but that was it. Nice deep tone/rumble. Shifting and finding neutral was the best by far of any bike I have owned.



As Dave told me there is a noticeable difference with the 117 compared to the 114.

Radio is super nice! Very responsive and way easier to maneuver.



Post up some Pics Rob! Congrats

I was very shocked when I got my 18, and noticed more power from the 117 vs the 17 CVO with the 114.  I sure could not believe 3 ci would be noticeable.  The 117 has a different cam than the 114, and I believe that is what makes the noticeable difference.

The Reinhart slip ons do sound good on the 117 motor.

Congratulations on the new bike.

That's nice Rob.  Saw one of those in person.  Much better looking paint in person that what I'd expected.  Hope it give you no problems and does give you huge fun  :2vrolijk_21: .
