Rubber side down? THAT'S what I'm doing wrong!
09/28/05 at 08:14:19
 
Hello.  

I picked up my S40 last night at a dealership near here.  

- 2006 Suzuki S40 (red)
- 2006 Joe Rocket this riding jacket (all black).
- 2006 Joe Rocket these gloves (also black).
- 2005 Vega Vista XPE Helmet (Red - it's in my lap in the picture)
- 1975 model year rider (the weakest link)


(Yes, I'm bald this week.  Not usually, though.)

Great looking bike! And rider. When I bought my bike, my husband threatened to have "this side up" painted on the top of the tank. I check it every time I get on to see if he has. He's quite the prankster so you have to watch him, I also check my jackets.

Nice bike, nice photo. Good luck with it.  I'm trying to convince myself to sell my HD Road King,  and get a Savage.  The decisiom would be easier if I were not 6'2".

I'm 6'0" and it fits me almost perfectly.

Thanks for the reply.  You looked tall on the bike.  I plan to go to BikeOctoberfest in October to ride one.  I don't plan on any big trips on the Savage,  so I think I will fit.   If I find that the ride is "ok", great, if not I will look at an S50 (too much $).  If all goes well, my Road King will to EBay.

That red is nice.  I've been considering some type of either red or orange whenever I someday get around to removing tank, fenders and such to repaint.

Nice bike! Now buy a Supertrapp muffler, a jet kit, and a K@N air filter and really see what a 650 is capable of!

Welcome to the group.

BTW - sometimes baldness isn't optional  :'( so as long as you guys are doing it voluntarily, the rest of us don't stand out so much  Shocked
