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:
i believe thats exactly what i said :lol: :thumbs:

Biker gets owned by ground hog
 http://media.photobucket.com/video/Groundhog%20Owns%20Biker/pbhomepage/video3/groundhog.flv?ref=homepagequadv3
The guy hit the front breaks too hard.
I'm going to watch the vid again.


I was thinking about taking a 2 day beginner rider course so I could learn somewhere else than on the road  :lol:  I can also get a 15% reduction on my insurance so thats a bonus.

probably a 5k dollar difference to the bmw. It is a bit more leaning toward touring.

compared to what, your moped?  :lol: you don't buy a bmw because it is the best looking machine. It is just the best machine. Nobody builds machinery like the Germans.
