Update: Start of 2nd season, 10K+ miles, and a fresh set of tires.
Issues so far:
1) The dreaded coolant leak. I slowly lost a full reservoir's worth over the course of the season. I have detected a slight whiff of coolant on occasion since day one but could never find any leaks. I had the dealer take a look when it was in for the 12 month/9300 mile service, they couldn't find anything either (I don't think they looked very hard). Just recently I noticed a few drips of coolant as it was warming up. Close inspection revealed it coming from the hose attached to the water pump; the internet told me that it's probably just a loose hose clamp. The internet was correct! Of course it takes over an hour to R&R all the plastics and the fuel tank to get at the fucking clamp (which was loose), so while I was in there I tightened every exposed fastener and did some accessory wiring work. Subsequent rides this week confirm success of the repair.
2) Random front brake light switch error. It appears it's a sticky micro-switch, pretty easy to get at so I'll pop it off and clean/lube it. The good thing is that it doesn't affect the CC operation, just the brake light operation. I always use both brakes, and the rear brake light switch is fine, so I'm not too concerned about being rear-ended by a spaced out cager at this point. Stay tuned for update on this........
Other than those 2 minor annoyances, I'm still loving it....this thing is a freaking blast! 100% would recommend if you're considering a move to the Orange Side.
