Welcome. I have the same bike. What are you looking to do with it or to it? Read my post about Sarachu exausts. http://www.motorcycleforum.com/showthread.php?t=75130
To help handling you'll need to raise the tail (this is next on my list) using shorter dogbones on the shock linkage. If you are interested in them let me know, I'll PM you a link. The stock Bridgestones suck for hard riding but are good for normal riding. I'm still researching tires. Really I'm still learning myself about how to make this good bike better but I can give you what I got.
Follow the maintence schedule to the letter. Change the oil and filter before 500 miles then at 1000. I'm going to do mine again at 2000 then probably every 2000 after that. I've had mine since June and it's been trouble free, the whole 1500 miles I have on it. I've known people who have had the older version of it and they have been trouble free also.
