As in the title I was wondering if anyone had some info to share about this bike?

Only info I have: this is the bike I will buy next. :thumbs: Ready for touring...but not a goldwing sized behemoth yet. They come with auto clutch nowadays. Look for "AE" in the title of the bike. Weird...no clutch lever. 150+ hp. six speed and comforrtable. :thumbs:

I was browsing Yamaha's site & looking at the new "AE" until I saw the price, its more than I wanted to spend.   This 2005 is almost new yet with 6,300 miles. 

Note: Tomorrow I'm taking my motorcycle permit test, several hours before the test ride

I test drove the bike on Saturday & liked the feel of it but its a touch on the fast side for a beginner  :lol:  I need to be careful so I don't get a speeding ticket or a trip to the morgue.

I will be  picking up the bike on Monday  :clap:
