1. Not a one kick start ::: This is the most anoying factor if you ask me, I have to talk to the service man on the second service about this.......I am not sure if this is permanent issue, but I am not happy with it.........bike takes atleast 4,5 kicks to start when the engine gets cold.....once it is up and running then its ok......but leave the bike for 5,6 hours and u need 4,5 kicks again to get it hummerring. My Ambition was gem in this...... even after 5 years of vigrious running believe me I never used a third kick, infact 90% of times it was a one kick start and only 10% i had to kick the 2nd one on Ambition.........with GS its alwasy 4,5 kicks...........and I am definately gonna talk to service man on this during second service....

2. Gear shift at sudden deaccleration::::: Gear Shift is butter smooth OK but not when you suddenly deaccelerate from 90 at 6 gear to 20 in seconds and quickly try to shift up at 20......thats when I felt neutral lock ups almost every time I did that....though its not that a big deal but I guess I can bring this in the negetive as pect.............rest in generall no issues and gear box is pretty smooth.

3. 0-60 not THAT impressive :::::: After couple of head to head combacts at red light. RTR FI way ahead/pusar 180 better and UNI almost same. rest all behind
