When in the Grocery store, pick up the Feb 2007 Cycle World. Up front is a quick ride review of a 2006 FE450E. Why didn't they test a 2007? Anyhow, they really liked it. Having to criticize something, they thought the suspension soft for big whoops and hits, but excellent everywhere else. They praised the overall quality and polished feel of the bike. They term it "Everyman's Exotic". Changing the subject, I just saw a video I would like to recommend, if you haven't seen it yet. Long Way Around is the title. It's about two actors, who are motorcyclist, that decide to ride around the world. They actually do it, and film it too. Interestingly enough, they are deciding on the bikes to take, and pick the KTM Adventure over the BMW GS. Then KTM pulls out, no sponsorship, fearing that they will fail. It is painful at times to watch where they took the GS's that they ended up with. Great movie, even my wife got into it!
