Outstanding! Welcome to the darkside.

I've got 1000 miles on my Goodyear and feel very confident with it now.

If you went with the smallest auto radial, you won't notice much difference until you see how much service you get.

I use dynabeads, 3 ounces front and 4 ounces rear, for balance and have been extremely pleased with the results.

Engine hesitates with initial throttle roll-on.

Hi....Just bought a yellow 2006 Reflex S with 714 miles on the clock. It looks like it just came off the assembly line. I haven't had a chance to ride it much because of the weather but I have experienced a definite hesitation when I roll-on the gas leaving a stop. Then the engine "catches" and goes very nicely. Anyone had the problem? Thanks. Dennis

Maybe old gas? Drain the gas and throw some Seafoam in the tank before refill. That should clean things out. It might take a few tanks with the Seafoam added to make things right.
