Hey, it's your thread, list complaints/gripes as you see fit.

Regarding the brakes, on brand new bikes I've made a routine of cleaning the discs and pucks with brake cleaner. Never know what machining oil residue or corrosion protectant was applied.

When adjusting the clutch lever free play, notice that the clutch safety switch tends to push the lever away from *home* on the perch. Watch the lever on the transmission move as you push the hand lever home to see how much motion is used in the process. Made a difference in whether or not mine jerked on first gear selection of the day.
