I sold the convertible. The Benz is my mother's, she uses it when she comes down to visit. Anyway, I just got my motorcycle license last month. Got the bike today. Need to get proper gear next (jacket, boots, gloves, pants, helmet, etc..).

nice!

i'd hit it. a 600 is a GREAT bike to get your bearings on, i've owned a couple myself, and even after owning an 1100, i find myself back on the 600s.

just remember, nothing takes the place of proper gear and experience.

Hell yeah, Q! You are officially badass now and slightly less redneck. Time to grow out that mullet again so it can blow in the wind under your helmet that's decorated with wolves and Jesus. Have fun!

It has a purpose. Lower it and it'll throw off the balance and make it handle like a cruiser. "Stance" isn't everything unless you ride a pig. Form is way less important than function unless you ride a hog. Performance trumps style all day long...

Q, that bike is awesome--enjoy it. I love the understated colors--glad they got away from the super bright stuff and hey look at me graphics. Be safe.
