I have had my GV 1 1/2 yrs now ( 3000 mi ). I really love it. You do have to be careful with that kickstand. I have scraped it a number of times, and in a turn it can spook you. You got a great scoot that I'm sure you will enjoy. The longest ride so far has been a 340 mile round trip, and it did great. Mostly 2 lane, very little highway, although it can keep up if need be. Enjoy.
