First day commuting. Much more relaxed than the cafe racer position.
For me it comes down to a few basic requirements.
A good dealership that is easy to work with.
Exciting bike to look at, hear and most importantly ride.
Brakes & suspension. You can't go cheap on either IMO if you plan to really ride.

Thanks!

ah but do the mirrors wobble and vibrate at speed ?
-
I have new mirrors on the way, Rizoma dynamic. They don't wobble yet, but they will. I don't get why stock mirrors are always shit.

im a harley guy as well ,but the italians do make the most beautifull bikes
I feel the same way. I love the look of Harleys, but I prefer to ride sportier bikes.
-
for bikes now ,im in cruising mode i love just cruising around ,i may be getting even slower as im thinking of getting an old triumph

slow down and see twice as much

slow down and see twice as much
I agree. I take the long slow way home from work each day. If I have a few extra minutes I hit the canyon for a few twisties. The freeway at rush hour is pure torture.
-
That was Harley Dave who said that, and I disagree somewhat - italian bikes are nice and I appreciate them (BMWs and the Japanese builders too) but deep in my heart I'm a Harley guy…
Opps, my apologies for the mix up Bluegrass. Harley guys will always be 'Harley' guys. Can't take that away from you.
I've actually learned to appreciate Harleys more than I did in the past and may credit taking part in Friday the 13th earlier this year had something to do with that. Most of the riders ain't the type I'd hang with on a given night, but either way, we all enjoy being on two wheels regardless of the manufacturer. I'll think that in itself is something.Congrats on the new addition @summ3rhays! Enjoy!

Thanks @activechild !
-
thats right as long as its two wheels thats all that matters

How do you make a key that won't go on a ring? Sexy design, but a pain to grab it out of a pocket.
Found an anodized case Which I believe should work and will look better after it's banged up a bit.

thats a nice dilema to be in
-
Yeah, can't complain too much

Went to a vintage bike show here in Louisville over the weekend - for your viewing pleasure, here is a sampling. The old fellow in the first pic won a trophy for his Triumph - well-deserved, it was immaculate. They had a lot of old classics, and also choppers, brats, bobs, and other cool bikes.

absolutely!
