Well I picked it up today and put down 200 miles of mountain roads, fire roads, and some dirt trails. This bike is amazing in every way. Its damn good on road and its even better off road. This is absolutely the perfect bike in my eyes. I dont have 1 complaint. It actually shocked me how good it is.

I know the wait sucks but be assured that its 100% worth the wait.

Black is the best looking of the 3 colors. Mine is due 2nd half of July. Can’t wait. I’m gonna put some more dirt oriented tires on right away and see what kind of trouble I can find.

I hear ya. I could have had the red and white on and picked it up last Saturday, but really wanted to the back one and figured what's another 3 weeks. Seeing yours make me realize I made the right decision to be patient. Be present. Be one. Be Yoda. 

 

I've already got a pile of parts for mods at my house waiting for the instal!

 

Well, saying that out loud I'm now losing patience.

Stock tires work pretty damn good way better then what im used to but ive been riding supermotos off road and on single track for years. Tires are a perfect mix for road and off road during the dry summer months.

I think this image says it all. For me the amazing thing about the T7 is keeping that feeling of a dirt bike but with a rally style tower which gives you travel capabilities. 

 

Also, you can have your best half in the back and share some nice trips!

Hard break in is the only way.

Agreed. That's why on every new bike purchase I don't take it home without an oil change kit as it'll need it in 20 miles. 😉

Mine was "broken in" over 500  miles in the Pyrenees on and off road after riding home from the dealers with only 15 miles on the clock. Everything got a workout. Brakes, suspension, engine, gearbox...

 

1500 miles later, engine is even better.
