    Great overal package, amazing engine and excellent bike for general use without forgeting the twisties.
    BUT.. to keep costs low the usual way is to use low cost average suspension package. You should try it though and if you like it and suspension is not enough upgrade it.

    2014 had a snatchy throttle at low revs, apparently been fixed in the 2015 with an ECU remap. Was looking at one but it is too tall for my stumpy little legs so am considering an MT07.

    Make sure you have a sit/ride on one though as one thing I don't like about the 07 is the footpeg position as it seems to catch my legs when stationary.

    I just missed one, by one day.
    The guy bought it, fitted about four grands worth maxton, gillies, r and g and akropovic and after 600 miles decided to buy a R9T.
    It sold for the price of a standard tracker.
    Kicking myself!
