Very nice, Puma - looks like a Blackbird tailpiece and front mudguard........
Reminds me a bit of the 1200 Suzuki Bandit - nice power spread, very smooth so I''ve heard.
Not a ride I would choose for myself, done far too many miles on naked bikes, now prefer(need) a bit of "blast protection"........
May you have many happy miles...............

Another motorcyclist is stuck with MBD...Multiple Bike Disorder! 

Good looking ride Puma!  You definitely owe us a review.

Puma,

I saw a youtube video of a Honda naked bike owner(I think it was a 954) and he purchased a Honda windscreen that fits around the headlight.  It wasnt much of a windscreen, but Im sure it offered some protection.  Maybe you could check into adding one to your bike.  It looked pretty sporty mounted.

I too have MBD....I have tried to combat it but it hurts too much......

I picked up a companion for the Cane to hang out with over the Winter......

Anyone ever hear of WMP exhausts???
