Yeah, especially if Herm is planning another dual-sport route on Saturday.

2012.. Ok. Some info may be a bit date specific since they did updates along the way... But
If run hard, the heat exchanger unit likes to shit the bed. It's the odd round gizmo on the front of the case with coolant hoses running to it. If it gives up, it blows coolant into the oil. There's a couple flavor of kits out there to separate the oil cooling from the water totally
Rear suspension linkage is progressive fwiw. I found it to be a tad problematic since the springs were soft for me and I'd get a lot of squat getting on the power coming out of corners
The automatic cam chain tensioner isn't so hot. There's manual replacements
The gear shifter shaft is kinda long and can be sloppy. There's an external support for it from Sato.
If your looking for rearsets, look at Attack. Well done, swaps from regular to GP shift with one bolt. Lots of adjustments and features to protect them in a crash.
You can use TuneECU on it for free. Plenty of mapping info out there. Also can let you adjust the speedo to correct for gearing changes. You do need a windows computer or VM and an ODB cable.
Captive wheel spacers and a captive rear caliper mount make wheel changes a lot easier

Very interesting.
Define "run hard". I was unaware of this heat exchanger.
My 06 had no problems with any of these things and it was definitely run hard at the track. 13000 trouble free miles with that one.

Tracky, trackish - check out the 675 forum.
Oh and if you get up to creating anything custom Lmk. I've got an 07 track bike. So many components are shared from 07 until the 2013 redesign.
