Just got an 09 FE450 and plan on using it more as a dual sport bike so I want to prevent any problems from pavement riding. So far the pavement is about 10% or less of each ride. Not sure if it was my expectation of an improvement/difference or a real change......but when I first rode the bike it seemed to be smoother going across the paved parking lot. So far I have about 200 miles on it and it is working good.
