[QUOTE="bucky, post: 975564, member: 19733"] Since I bought my AE new, the idle speed has settled to slightly above 1000 rpm. No problems here. Very occasionally, if I forget to downshift to 1st as I approach a stop, i get a little difficulty moving down the gears to 1st from a dead stop. But all i have to do is give a little throttle to slightly move the bike and then it downshifts smoothly to first from wherever I was. But I think that is just some kind of a syncronization thing with the little do-dads in the tranny as sometimes my other regular shift bikes do the same thing. Overall, i am perfectly happy with the AE. I have never done more than a half throttle or so power up shift, but it does it quicker and smoother than i could ever do manually. Moving thru the gears up or down is a breeze and you can keep both hands and feet firmly where they belong. Being the cheap bastard I am, I would make the dealer fix the bike or refund you fully to make you whole. Remind them of your lemon law and keep all correspondence and records. Also, one thing I always tell my kids...The squeaky wheel gets the grease. Complain. Give the service manager a fair shot at fixing things, but if things stall, don't go up the chain, go to the top of the chain. [/QUOTE]
