It took me a while to feel at one with my gen 1. I've altered a few things on the bike since I've had it nothing ground breaking but the list so far is gel seat, r1 front end, ivans full monty, r1 five spoke wheels, db screen, stubby pipe, Scott oiler and a 12v/usb socket. The bike came with a r6 shock that was vastly improved by devisyam tweeking the settings.
From the above list the most important mod for me is the gel seat, on a standard seat my ass was dying after 50 miles now I can knock up 400 no problem.
I've had faster bikes but every time I've questioned the gen 1 it's response has been spot on. Touring, scratching, poodling to the shops it's done it all.
Performance wise the bikes more than capable and in the right hands (not mine) can suprize many power rangers on there latest rocket ships.
