Glad you had a good first ride. You'll love the course, and you'll learn so much. And then there's still so much to learn :-) Enjoy!

Congrats, it's a lovely bike!

R1Style, did you ever get a retractable cover for your bike? I'm looking into them as well and found this thread in my search.

Excellent videos!

A friend called to check on me yesterday when she saw what remained of 1 or 2 bikes that were scattered (on New Street near the library), with one on a tow truck. I can't find any info on it at all.

Westbzero, I normally do a quick look over my shoulder to look back at the car. In almost all cases the car usually backs off a bit. I don't give them a dirty look, I just make it look like I'm doing it to see just how close they are. I think sometimes people don't realize just how close they...

I've been with Jevco for 2 years and now that they've been bought out by Intact, my insurance has gone up $300.00/year. :( So far TD has given me the lowest quote, even lower than what I paid Jevco last year.

I was thinking along those lines. Just wasn't sure if I could treat over a previously treated fabric.

My bike will outside without any shelter for another season once I bring it out of storage. I use a quality Nelson Rigg cover that is waterproof. It has a small tear that I'd like to repair if possible. I will be buying a bigger bike this year, so I don't want to spend the dollars to replace...

Wow, that was great to watch! One smart rider to think of that!

Providing he gave you correct contact info. Did you get his license plate number at least? Not sure if you should have called the police, but I would have. It would be your insurance that covers the damages anyway, not his. You may have seriously underestimated the damage done. The other thing...

I rode around my neighborhood until I got bored. That's when I knew I was ready to get out into traffic. My first time out into "real" traffic was very early on a Saturday morning. A friend rode her bike to my place and she rode behind me until we got to a mall. We spent about 2 hours just...

I'm going.

I just don't take the chance that it will get grabbed. I either lock it, or take it with me. Same with my jacket. Not worth the risk.

I've had my M2 for a year now, and I'm still just as excited as you are now :) Useless? Not at all. Welcome.

Congratulations on your new ride! I've had my eye on the Vulcan 900 (Like Skitta mentioned), so any encouragement would be really appreciated. Don't want to hijack this thread, though.

How did I miss this entire thread???? I had a blast with you that night we went over the Skyway. I read the responses, and you sure have received some great advice :)

Sure, I'll go riding with you some time. The next couple of weeks might not be the greatest for me, work is busy and I"m working lots of overtime. I really like going out early on Saturday mornings and heading for breakfast somewhere.

I guess a thread like this can bring out the best or worst out of us all ;)
