Rode 262 miles on Weds last week up thru the North GA Mtns. If you're from the area, then you've most likely heard about Blood Mtn, Suches, or "The Loop". Absolutely a wonderful day, but did have some lower back ache the next day from the riding position - which I thought was odd seeing how a long portion of my riding life has been spent in a sportbike saddle for hours on end. Otherwise, the bike performed flawlessly ... as in it was a thrilling day of riding which resulted in me falling asleep with a stupid grin on my face.
I did have issues with the Rizoma mirrors/universal bar ends - both of which were parts I had laying around that were handy at the time of the build and cheap(er) to use than buying something new. For one, the mirrors are 1:1 aspect so your field of vision sucks. Two, the bar ends were some generic universal kind they use a typical rubber bushing to secure themselves inside the bar - which causes the transfer of vibration not only to your hands, but also causes the mirror to vibrate like crap too. I have some CRGs on another bike and REALLY like their looks and performance so I ordered the CB/SS some. Mo' better now.
