99% of new owners appear to be happy with this bike.
I find this bike to have low vibration compared to other thumpers I have owned.

I suspect your shifting problems may cure themselves after your shift shaft breaks in and if you will tighten the shift shaft bolt to almost extreme because it

From both sides to insure a good crimp around the spline.

As far as not trying this off-road and just going to the store...just remember this is an adventure touring dirt bike and not an XR.
Mild off-road capability coupled with excellent comfort and ergos and touring(sans interstates)on a sub 400lb.
