|  Reveiws of the 08 Concours
I bought a 08 Concours on Nov 14th. It had 457 miles on it. I have put 643 miles on it up until in snowed and I had to put it away for the winter. The bike is extremely fast. Once it hits 5000 rpm it lights up like a rocket and you feel like your in warp drive. I'm used to riding a Honda VTX 1300 and being in a very comfortable riding position. I have added risers to the Concours and the position is perfect. The windsheild complaints I read about I do not have. I'm 5'11", maybe taller riders have this complaint but I'm not sure. I added heated hand grips that I installed myself and in my opinion is the best money I've ever spent. Riding with cold hands sucks. The only reall downside I see with the bike is the miles per gallon. I have to be honest all the other positives make this completely insignificant.  |
