I agree on many of the things. Fit and finish on the Outlaw is not up to standard of many other 450's. I haven't had any issues with mine, just the annoyances, many that you mentioned. Having owned many other bikes, I'm willing to deal with those and/or correct them. But not everyone can do that. Maybe someone who takes their bike to the shop to get work done/mods installed should choose a more main-stream bike that has countless aftermarket parts to choose from with much R&D. I will never argue that point, but for me, I like the Outlaw's package.
Lol, I hear ya, i dont HATE my outlaw, in fact now that i have the majority of the bugs worked out I like it!

But if I could do it again, would i buy the outlaw over something else....no....well.....maybe over a honda, those things dont make piss for power.
