Bought my brothers bike!
It's an 08 and only has 2100 miles on it. Got a pretty good deal on it. He never rode it often, bout once a week to the corner store which is about 6 miles from his house. I always drooled everytime I came over and saw it sitting in his garage. I've always ridden dual sport bikes, and owning a nice big sport tourer was always just kind of a fantasy of mine.
At first I was looking for one thinking we could ride together but he never has time, and made me a sweet deal on his so I pulled the trigger, the thing is freakin' flawless. He's super anal about all of his stuff. He has an 07 Corvette Z06 with like 8k on the odometer lol. Never really understood the point of owning something you weren't gonna use. But hey to each their own I guess.
Anyway I've been riding some the past few days and jesus is this thing fast. Feels like I'm doing 60 and I look down and the needle is sitting on 100. I took it in to the dealership to have the recalls done, but they said they were expired so, I guess I'll replace the bag latches on my own. Anyway I'm loving this thing. Everytime I get on it I giggle like a school girl and the smile doesn't come off my face till I go to sleep at night, even then I'm probably still smiling bc I'm dreaming about this beautiful machine. SWMBO loves it also.
Got a great deal on insurance through geico. All the max coverages and stuff and it was like 750 for the year. I didn't think that was too bad.
Anyway I'm just a happy camper.
