So I have a 2008 m1000 standard. I put a new seat, intake, can, eyepod, vents, vents, and more vents. It has taken me more places than any other sled. It has never left me stranded.....minus running out of gas and one time a tps acted up because of a left hand throttle bolt....it has never missed a beat and has been great in every aspect. I'm sad that it will only have more ride with me behind the throttle. But it is time to upgrade. This was a great chassis that could take a serious thrashing and keep ticking. SO I say farewell to a old heavy friend. It forever changed the way I ride. Thanks, ya old pumpkin.
