I'll be picking up my 2003 Daytona 955i to see for myself. I have not heard anything bad about them. I'll write more soon...

I miss mine. I sold it last summer because we were doing home renovations and it just sat there in the garage looking at me. I sold it and the guy I sold it to wrecked it a week later. I miss that bike. Sure it had its quarks but I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.

I'm just about done doing some long overdue maintenance and thourough cleaning on my T595. Looks like new again except for the clear over my tank decals started bubbling. But its not noticible from more than 10ft.

I'm about to start on my second and third 955i's. They should be pretty neat when I get them done

I've got an '05 955i with only 1500 miles on it. It is a sweet bike I just don't ride it much. This is actually my second one after a Daytona 900.

I have a PENSKE w/850 spring rate, fully adjustable, ride height, the works and I hardly used it. It is best matched with the Attack rear linkage, which I also have. Both are off my bike and looking for a new home.

Kevinwilly, are you still interested?
