    Thumbs up New guy from South of Boston

    Hi all,
    I just bought my first street bike in September, a 2002 Honda 919. I love naked street bikes and it really struck a cord with me. Plus it's easy to ride, powerful, comfortable, reliable, and I picked it up for $2k. If I was going to buy a new bike it would probably be a Street Triple R or a Tuono V4R if I thought that I wouldn't kill myself

    I live in Easton and I have to say the riding around here is pretty lame, I haven't attempted any longer trips yet but when I do go out I usually go through the back roads of Sharon which are pretty nice. Anybody in this area with roads that you like? Seems like you have to go to the North shore or central MA for some good riding.

    Anyways, just wanted to say hi because I am thinking about attending some Penguin School days next season if I can get away with it and I don't really have anyone to ride with. Cheers

    Welcome to NESR. Penguin is great. You will find nice roads if you ride enough. Maybe I will see you at the track!

    Thanks for the welcome! Can't wait for things to warm up a bit, I am running out of inexpensive mods to do to the bike!

    If you have a "new" baby that says ANYTHING, exploit it... make a fortune... and buy whatever the fuck you want for the bike.
