Hi, Scramblerati
170+miles on my Icon and I still can't get used to the throttle. Coming out of tight junctions, even applying the throttle in bends, seems to require liberal amounts of clutch, and sometimes rear brake, to stop me lurching offline. Also, bike seems to have significant engine-braking when closing the throttle. Anyone else the same? Does it ease off with a few more miles?
Front brake could 'bite' a bit earlier, but I suppose they are still quite 'fresh'.
Oh, dear, sounds like a lot of moaning. I am having a laugh on it, once on the move, anyway.
