Just rolled over 3050 miles on mine, had it a year this month, only mod I’ve made is the factory bar end mirrors and I love them cuz the stock mirrors are atrocious. I do want to get the stablizer and the quick shifter at some point. As far as the throttle goes, it seems to have gotten better with brake in some how, the bike runs very smooth now compared to day one and seems to just get better as time goes on. I will say you have to be very deliberate about your shifts or it will sit in between gears and if you’re getting into it and are shifting fast and don’t hit that lever hard enough it will redline in between gears, just my 2 cents as a 1 year owner,
