    Help a fellow rider out?

    Hey all! Moved here for upstate NY in September. I stored my bike back in NY for the winter but as its getting nice out I'm trying to bring it back here so I can ride. I live in Somerville and was wondering if any of you locals had an extra spot in a garage or something that I could keep my bike at. I don’t think street parking is the best idea in the city..

    Also I am interested in getting in on rides with you all! Are there regular groups that meet up and go out? If so where do you all ride? I have been out Rt 2 and up into VT, NH, CT pretty much all NE other than RI..

    If NJ is the "armpit of America"...RI is its "chode". Keep an eye on this site as well as GroupRider.com - The place to find motorcycle group rides and people to ride with for group rides in the area.

    Cool, cool... Yeah, that's a bike you can own for years & still learn things on it & improve your skills.

    Yea, its been a great bike.. I was just getting out of school (broke) but have always wanted a bike.. Was looking at what ever I could get for the best price.. Found this bike and got the guy down alot.

    Have learned alot riding it, its a pretty forgiving bike which is always good when your a newbeee

    F3 is a great bike. No reason to move up until you can ride the wheels off it.
