Sounds like you had a nice break-in day. The buzz at 4000 rpm's is normal. Sweet spots are 3700 or 4500 on a 5 speed your gearing is slightly different.

I'll be back in NY next week and we'll hook up.
Thanks Steve - when you get back we can meet around Greenwich and take Riverside Road North all the way up to Armonk, then Bedford, Salem and onward to the Titicus Reservoir. Excellent back country riding all around there and it is pretty central to where you live and I live.

Beautiful place to ride New England. My wife and I were impressed when we were up there a couple of years ago.

Yeah Imagine that Mick - I had to take a second look and then flip the bike around. New England back country roads are awesome cruising. It's hard to beat it in the Fall when the leaves change.
