It is very rideable. To tell the truth I am still a little intimidated by it, but it is alot of fun to ride. The transition to boost is very smooth. It pulls like a train, just rolling on the throttle in 6th gets the wheel lifting at around 120-130mph. I still have very low miles so I am trying to go easy on it.
