Just joined the SF crew
Just got my SF 1098 2012 today. It was an eye opener with the power, moving from the S4. The gears take more effort, I guess the S4 was nice and broken in over time. Geometry does take a little getting used to, but the best was just opening it up and being jolted back in 4th. With the stock gearing, I did not even see the high end yet. Now time for some rearsets and to open the clutch up. My ears are still ringing with the termi's  Only got to do about 20 miles tonight since it was already dark. Trying to burn up the gas to get the non-oxy fill up. Ordered the 14 tooth sprocket already, but with the torque not sure if I want to swap it right away.
Stickers came off tonight.
