Jeremy,
Glad to hear you're enjoying your XS! I am a fellow newcomer to the scene and just getting comfortable with the bike. Coming from a modern sport bike as my last machine as well, I miss the big tires and have been hesitant to lean it into a corner, but she has taken everything I've given her so far! I've actually used almost all of the tread that I have! I'll have to take a close up of the rear tire, you can see the road wear coming all the way out to the edge of the tire, about 1/4" so I've def been pushing it haha.
I'm def loving the vintage feel to the bike, and its cool to have a bike thats not just another 2000 something CBR or R6 or Ninja like EVERYBODY has haha. I De-baged mine and it gets the, "Is that a Ducati" looks and questions alot lol. I'm happy with the bike and sounds like you are too! I'd def figure out a way to make that meet if I were you. Sounds like you should have most things sorted with the ol girl by then. Good luck man!
