Fueling seems to be spot on (not that I don't think it could be improved; just don't feel a need for it). I do think the rear brake pedal intrudes too far into the foot peg area making it way too easy to ride the rear brake without knowing.
Yes. I've been thinking about a thumb brake conversion for the rear (would not have that problem) but for a street bike, it's not such a good idea.
