How's the GS?

I realize I have been away a little.  Work and life balance is not one of my strong points.  :)  I was facing a product (software) release the week after purchasing the GS.  Many hours of overtime and a Sunday deploy kept me grounded and merely watching the GS sit in the garage.

Really.  A brand new bike and I get to watch it sit in the garage...  Argh...

During the interval the GS has received:

1) It's 600 mile service (965 km).  Do you conceive of how difficult it is to put 600 miles on a bike when you cannot ride on the freeway??  This was the longest and most difficult 600 miles I have ridden!

She got new oil:

New final drive fluids:

2) Received engine and tank guards:

3) Installed a Centech unit for all those electronic accessories. Oilburner did a great job, didn't he?

4) Auxiliary headlights, to better be seen:

5) Hyperlights (no pictures)

6) We took a quick trip to snag a tag and she saw her first bit of dirt...errr water:

I think the next item should be a Fender Extender to save those pipes.  :)

Can you believe? Even the RT was showing RTA (Adventure) stripes:
