Just took my New (to me) 03 out for a shakedown ride. It's pretty much stock with about 5k kilometers (BTW, does anyone know how to change to miles--haven't searched it yet, so feel free to ignore. . .) OH MY GOD! I've been riding a 650 vstar, and again--OH MY GOD. 80 when you hit fourth, without even winding her. Did I say ohmygod? Just wondering what it will take to get the front wheel up.
I can see what folks on the seat topics are talking about--what's with the hump right up your butt crack? I think the seat will be the first thing to go. Then maybe some pull-back bars or risers, and maybe some forward pegs, and pipes. WHAT HAVE I GOT MYSELF INTO??? Don't know, but can't get the smile off my face, so I'm grabbing grips and hanging on!
