I actually love the 900SS. It's a keeper. Ok so the mirrors fold in over 90 and the sidestands can be amusing, but for the fun of riding, they are brill. Point, squirt and fling yourself out of bends. I just decided I needed a modern bike as there is nothing more infuriating than being tucked in at 140 (max speed on those) and someone coming by you on a Gixxer or R1 like you're not moving. So now I have a blade sitting nest to them
I bought a mod from Brancato for the suicide stand, I was always shit scared it would fall over in a breeze. It was a real hoot to ride but had a real habit of drenching the front pot on starting and effectively ending the ride until the plug came out. Traced the fault back to a single o ring in the carb in the end.
