I wanted to get this thread started now so we can talk as it is released! I will be sure to get the specs up as soon as I get a copy here in the next half-hour! It is always nice to hear everyone's input good or bad! Heck who knows Yamaha may be listening to us as well! So once the release starts I want to hear from everyone! Whats your input! What do you think the pros and cons are? What do you love or absolutely hate about it? Are you still excited, or are you let down and no longer interested?!

My guess on the cost was pretty darn close. Wheel travel is decent
