It was 180元 for the year.
Yeah, it's a 6 speed. No type there. It also has a digital tack that with a fuel gauge. I've never had a bike that my fuel gauge wasn't my tripometer, so I was excited about that feature. There has been a small issue with starting. The EFI system isn't as foolproof as a cars. It doesn't like starting and although it always catches and fires immediately, it will almost always stall after the first few cycles. So, you have to gun the throttle and get the RPM up to about 3000 within a second. Then rev it a bit at 3000 for 5 seconds. Then it's fine. It's almost like the sensors can't get a good baseline and aren't able to give the bike a good starting mixture right off the bat. Once it gets going, it's golden. Just those first few seconds are messy. Also, sometimes the EFI won't start at all. This happened in the middle of no where after a quick lunch break. My wife starts freaking out a bit. I was thinking, "damn, this could get annoying". Then she jokes and says, "try turning it off and turning it on again." I tried it and it worked. It's happened a few times since and that trick always works.
Your comments on the EFI don't exactly inspire any additional (not that there was much in the first place) confidence with the system. First thing that caught my eye was the EFI because I live in Tier-88, and while my particular mechanic is knowledgeable enough, any issues with that outside of the city and I'll really be stuck. Maybe I'll wait for next years model. VERY happy to hear about the fuel gauge though, I'm a dumbass and always forget to reset my trip ODO (only had to use the reserve switch once though, haha).
It's those damn tents they put up outside the store fronts. Right in the middle of the sidewalk. I nail my head on em everytime.
