no problems - stopped an hour in to let my butt rest - overall seat was fine.... bike did well on large hills - which some cars were struggling... overall very nice. Enough passing power and feels fine on sweeping turns -

Seems Im having a very small oil issue somewhere, which at prolonged highway speeds - a minute amt of oil is dripping from somewhere - tiny amt, but aware of the issue and trying to understand the access point. Dealer couldnt find it after revving it 10 minutes... so for now a mystery.

thanks for the report. where is the oil depositing itself?

Seems to be a slow drip - very slow - squeezing from the top manifold - head -

not enough to deposit anywhere - just seems a drip or 2 gets windblown around the front right side of the bike. seems that there are little tabs where the gaskets sit.. seems that may be a point.

not sure if bolts just need to be retorqued - maybe the seal just isnt perfect under higher pressure...

its not good whatever it is - but its not a major concern just yet as its not a major amount.

The dealer noticed it last time I brought it in - but afeter many revs we couldnt fidn the escape point - after 2.5 hours each way - at 70mph - it def initely forced more out than the first smaller trips.... Dealer said to bring it back if it happens again - so I guess I have to bring it back... As I mentioned in my former post - I dprooped th ebike likely and bent the frame slightly at the peg joint - the dealer originally tried to pin this on me - saying that the drop cause the engine to shift as its bolted onto the frame - I find this answer appauling... total BS - if a 10mph drop can shift the manifold off the block- then this bike was not made well at all.

yeah...take it back to him to find the leak. i'm guessing either the cover was not tightened correctly or the gasket was not installed correctly. let us know what you find.
