[QUOTE="Redfish Hunter, post: 1171714, member: 28773"] Oh Fred! I am so proud of you! What really impresses me is that you thought the ES was as impressive as I thought it was. In other words, you just made me feel smarter. You are comparing a bone stock '14 to a heavily modified/improved Gen1. I was comparing it to a well set up Gen2 and still found the differences to be stunning. And not just the suspension, the whole bike. What is the deal with that SkooterG guy? He's like a damned stray dog. He shows up looking half starved and every body wants to feed him. I think it is just an act. I hope I never have to deal with him again. Just kidding! We loved him. Greg is welcome to eat at our table anytime. I found it a pleasure to watch him "herding cats" on the demo ride and he was extremely patient with myself and Pop explaining the controls for the '14 ES. Of course Pop looked at the kids lining up for the demo ride and decided to just wait in the parking lot... Congratulations on your new bike. I hope it is everything you want it to be. More importantly, I hope you make it comfortable for TMJ. This forum needs more fantastic RRs from the two of you. May I suggest a dip into Colorado next year? [/QUOTE]
