I have had this bike all the way tore apart. I've learned it pretty well. So feel free to ask anything you need. As far as the sensor you are talking about, It has a tip over sensor same as any other fuel injected bike. Never seen anything like you are talking about though. But yes the torque is INSANE for lack of a better word. Mine has a +1 front sprocket (which is same as -3 rear) to help with highway mileage, and the thing still raise's up very easy in first and second gear.


I will worn you though, these bikes are very light on the front tire. It doesn't take much to wash your front end out in a curve. You really have to use your body to put weight on the front when you are riding. It's totally different then riding any I4 bike. They Truly are not a bike for a newer rider. Because of the light front they are also known for having headshake problems. If you buy one make sure it has a GOOD steering stabilizer on it. They are great bikes, Just not for the faint of heart.
