I have been driving about 400 mi and it is running much nicer with fresh gas! When I bought it I noticed that the headlight vibrated a lot. It turned out to be actually broken off the base. Good thing I had duct tape with me. It held up all right. I stopped at the mechanic that helped me with my bikes 19 years ago. I was glad to see he was still working. He ordered a new headlight for me and also new rear blinkers. Someone had put tiny blinkers on. I want to be more visible. When he puts those on he will also do an oil change. I plan to hang around and learn something about my bike.  Roll Eyes Smiley

Nice thing about the S40 is that you can do quite a bit your self.   I was at a dealer's today and most of the new bikes are almost impossible for a shade tree mechanic to work on....   (The new Ducati scramblers are tempting, and that metallic green Truxton was something to drool over.....)   Smiley
