I rode one when they first came out. Had the Can-am test ride people come to local dealer. Rode it around for a few miles. Biggest complaint was the traction control that didn't allow for wicked donuts.

If they could give the motor some more pep, I'd roll around the country on one of those bitches with a trailered motard on the back. Cruise the interstates in comfort and then find some bitchin back country twisty road and unleash the tard.
