So, i am new to the forum, and somewhat new to motorcycles. Ive been riding for about a year now, got my license in the MSA course and then went and bought a ’78 cb550! Hell of a lot heavier than those rebels i rode in the MSA course. Got rid of that bike, as it had too many problems. Have had a rebel for the past couple months and im just fighting the urge to buy a more powerful bike. So thats what im here to find out.
Nice to meet you all!

My last bike was air cooled, and it got quite hot at stoplights in the summer, but it had 650cc and 45 horsepower to generate a lot more heat. I would start a new bike bank account, and spend this spring’s bike fever studying what to get maybe next spring.
