Thanks to the guys at Central Florida Powersports!

First impressions:
1. This thing shifts without having to think about it - very smooth!
2. Some lower end power increase with more in the mid-range
3. Revs much quicker than before - simple stab at the clutch if need
4. Forks and shock well balance for my weight
5. New seat has just the right amount of grip - I'm not a fan of the sewn in bands

These are a few of the immediate improvements over my 2016 350 following an hour breaking it in. More riding next weekend...

Now if you could find a matching colored vehicle to haul it with, that would be the bomb. Oh, wait Cool Nice Jeep!

Excellent choice, good luck with it.

Not loving the silver (or duct tape colored?) backgrounds. Don't take offense, most people think my style sucks. It's yours baby, rock on.

From what I hear- bike has plenty of power to keep you on your toes and the lighter weight makes it fun to whip around. Thinking about picking one up myself!

Gray/Silver backgrounds are a requirement for my class, so I carried the color forward - not my first choice either! LOL

Nice! Congrats! I will be speaking with my credit unions check book on Wednesday lol. I'm going for a leftover 18 350 EXC-F. Online now going to request some price quotes to see what kind of deal I can get on a leftover. My track days are over and when I ride, it's on trails so I figured may as well go with the one I can ride on the street too if I wanted to. There is a dealer about a mile from me so I'm hoping to get a competitive price from them so I don't have to travel to get a deal.

Your wife let’s you drive around with your toy on the back of her car?

And is that the Eli Musquin edition KTM?

I get pizza delivered and you get a dirt bike... I'm doing something wrong. Seriously, congrats on a great bike.
