Anyone else find that a bit odd?  :yikes:    ;)  So how did you get it home, did you trailer it or read the manual at the dealer before you left?

Actually, the bike was delivered to me by the dealer.  But I read the manual that day before it even arrived (the PDF is on Kawasaki's site).

Delivered by the dealer.......WTF? It isn't like Home Depot or Lowes is dropping off a new John Deere mower, riding your new bike home from the dealer is what is fun! So were you charged extra for that? Read the PDF manual online........what do you do for a living?

The bike was inter-dealer exchanged, so they didn't have the bike I purchased (because they only had yucky black instead of cool silver.  They did not charge me for delivery.  I could not have driven the bike home anyway because it had the stock non-lowered seat, the suspension was not lowered with a lowering link yet, and my boots had not been modified.  This made the bike uncontrollable (we are talking MAYBE touch tippie toes on one side or the other.)[/quote]

No.  I was in school the whole time, but I remember the 70's.
