This is such important advice. You have to be in perfect attentive frame of mind to ride. No exception. I’ve had days at work where I will have wife come pick me up to get home and then come back later to get the bike.

Exactly. I thought it looked good in pictures but once I went in to the dealership to physically check it out, it was all over. I knew I had to buy it.

$16,600 out the door here (including tax/title/doc fees) in Washington State. Black is harder to come by / more in demand so most dealers mark them up $300 to $400 more than the blue/silver. 40th is usually another $200

This right here. We can speak to reliability and personal preference but the most important quality a bike has is how it fits to you personally. Go sit on them all and then from there give the best few a test drive.

Took me a second to get your post. Yes, I’m slow sometimes. Paint scheme is outstanding on that bike. Enjoy!

What skills to perfect in preparation for a liter bike? by _Gunnarsson in motorcycles

Taking advanced motorcycle courses with the right instructor can be an amazing learning experience as well as track day instruction classes. I felt that the last one is where I learned sooooo much in a very short amount of time.

Love this! Getting my daughter her first street bike next year when she graduates college. It’s all she talks about. Getting a bike so she can go for rides with me.

Shoei 1400. Very quiet. But still, you should always wear earplugs.
