    Better watch out

    The wife just obtained her motorcycle permit. She'll be tearing up the streets in no time.

    You've been warned.

    Not really. At one point, she got frustrated looking for a bike and told me to buy the 07 CBR1000RR I was eying, saying that she could ride my bike.

    Now THAT would be a mistake.

    Re: Better watch out

    awesome...for you ...that bike will great. I'm a big fan of the 250/500 for first timers, but the F2/F3 gives em room to grow without having to buy/sell another bike.
    Good luck and have fun. Tell your woman congrats!

    She has to learn to roll first. (I know that IF we get the bike, I'll probably be riding it on V's ride next weekend.)

    Re: Better watch out

    Well the CBR600F3 was a wash. It was at Windmill Cycles in Dartmouth, MA. It was $2K over book and had a few cracks in the fairing. The sales guy was a little cocky saying that since it only had 6400 miles that it was worth it. That, and the whole 6 month warranty.

    So, we also rode over to MoM South in Foxboro and they were just about closing. We talked briefly to a salesman and he showed her the Hyosung 250. She liked the bike, and I asked if they had the 650 in stock, but they didn't. We'll probably go back.

    Good thing is that the sales guy talked to her about the MSF. She wasn't crazy about the MSF being her first ride on a motorcycle. But that's what the beginner course is for.
