    Hey gang,
    I just bought a brand new 2007 Anniversary edition. I assume RWB is red white blue? Anyway here are my questions:
    How many of these editions were made? Was it a limited edition?
    Do I have to run premium fuel only?
    Anything I should know before I take it for my first ride?
    I pick the bike up next Saturday.
    Thanks in advance!:smile:

    Premium fuel is not required. 87 is all good!

    Yes, RWB is short for Red / White / Blue.

    The bike is made to run on 87 octane.

    For break-in, read the owner's manual and just follow the recommendations - especially the first service.

    For how many were made, check out this thread:

    You might notice a slight front-end wobble at 186mph.

    I really do not want to have to read the owners manual before I take it out for the first ride. I am planning on flying in to Dallas, signing the papers and riding it home. I was mostly wondering since I have never purchased a bike brand new, if the brakes needed bedded in, or if I needed to let it warm up for the first ride, that kind of stuff. I guess I would need to know recommended tire psi.

    I don't figure there is any real mystery. I just want to ensure that I am prepared and give my new ride the very best care.
    Thanks!
