I have a yellow abs, bought in December. Great fun, and the yellow gets a lot of compliments from riders and non-riders alike. Issues I have had so far are hot exhaust under left leg that exits under a pillion as well, making summer a great undertaking (thicker or leather pants are supposed to help, but haven't tried that yet), a little problem with idling and stalling unexpectedly (idle speed lowered of it's own accord during the summer and stalling was cured by another service after the 1000 km service and maybe the 14 tooth sprocket I put on) , a goofy fuel indicator and gauge, and a slippery seat that let's a certain young lady test the limits of pressure on my nether parts while stopping. Otherwise, I love the beast, a real pleasure to ride with lots of toot when you need it.
