Man, you’re hardcore – riding in the winter, and a newbie to boot! I have no previous experience on a motorcycle other than riding a Honda scooter in my 20’s when I resided in L.A. I don’t recall ever being in inclement weather, so it was easy riding.
Now I commute on a Honda civic and average 60-70 MPH and drive approx. 21 miles from home. Luckily I work the morning shift (6 am) and get off at 2:30 p.m. so I avoid rush hour traffic. I will definitely consider taking the safety classes this Fall. Thanks for your input!jayspotParticipantHey Eon,
6 more months…..maybe i should take the training in spring?….. thanks for the advice on the Suzuki. I did see one up close at a shop here in Everett (Power sports), but the salesman (super nice) showed me a 2000 Honda Aero 650. Beautiful bike, but looked heavy. I’d really like to ride upright due to my bad back, and i had read that riding a cruiser your tailbone absorbs a lot of the shock when hitting bumps.
I work in the downtown area (Capitol Hill) so my commute is quite far and i’m not sure whether the Suzuki has enough power on the freeway. By the way the Ducati I saw came from craigslists. Safe riding
