Info: Bought this bike to teach my wife to ride. After riding it myself, I can see why it''s the most popular entry-level bike - very tame, friendly handling and geometry, and a decent ride. My only mistake was riding my GSX-R 1000 before riding this one...BIG difference!!

Info: UPDATE: Bike was totaled on October 1, 2006 when I leaned into a left-hand turn and lost control. The bike went end-over-end down an embankment and into a treeline. I broke two bones in my left hand and fractured a vertebra in my neck. My dream bike! Bought this beauty from a guy who was looking to get a newer bike. IŽd been waiting about 11 years for this bike, and although my wife was miffe

Info: This was a nice little bike, I especially liked the shaft drive. But the cruiser seating position hurt my back and I decided to get a sport bike instead. I sold this one to my friend Mikey in Fairbanks, Alaska.

Purchased: Sep 1995
Info: My very first motorcycle! The dealer, Shay at Killeen Power Sports, threw in the matching Fulmer helmet for free. I had this bike for 6 months and then some 4-wheeled jerk ran me off the road. The bike was totalled by the insurance company. Pics to come...

Info: I got this bike from a guy in Fairbanks, Alaska who had wrecked and rebuilt it. The twin headlights were a draw for me - it smacks of the Triumph Speed Triple. I had a lot of fun with this bike until I had to move down to the states. I sold it to this guy who never gave me the money and I - like a big dummy - had already signed the title over to him.
