I picked up our 1000-5 last month, we have about 160 miles on it so far and could not be happier. It shifts extremely smooth and has much better manners then the belt driven machines I have been in. Loads of power and handles wonderful, the power steering is amazing. It took us about 8 months for one to show up at our dealer.
Glad to hear you are satisfied...I'm still waiting on mine to come in. Was supposed to be late June, but here we are starting into July...just have to wait.
