Thanks for the warm welcome.
A question about when she starts....
Just after you push the starter button there is click from around the top of the engine area and it takes about one cycle or revolution before she starts.
Is this normal?
Is this a warning sign of some possible starting issues to come?
My Mechanic wasn't sure if that is model specific, but did say he didn't know either way. He says most bikes just start right up, no 1-2 second lag.
Your opinions?
How does your bike start up?
@justin_o_guy2 she has 10, 532 miles. Front tire is still stock, rear was replaced some time ago.
@Duane Is is a 5 speed and all gears smooth when shifting. Haven't made it to 5th gear yet
will have pics later today of bike and Tach for all to see.
Full specs on the bike here: Mine is Black with green flecks in the paint though.

@danibugg yeah have fun out there is weekend on 101. Sunday is supposed to be perfect riding weather here
This bike IS the transportation, year round. I will be riding daily, some for work, most for pleasure.
Safe riding is what I'm very focused on right now, practice, practice, practice. The class helped a lot..I still forget the blinker sometimes. Nice that it has a cancel button and not just the back and forth slider.
I did ride a little 80cc dirtbike back when I was in high-school around the ranch I lived on in Colorado, many years ago.
Ok will be heading out for some riding soon....more to come along with pics.
