I hope you have many many miles of happy adventures. Watch out as no matter the color it seems you are invisible to most. Keep your eyes on your surroundings. Expect the unexpected..

Reply #18 - 02/28/10 at 15:12:42 The bike has a constant mesh tranny so as long as you left off the gas a bit you didn't do much if any damamge. Matter of fact, it's a good skill to learn. If you haven't already, take the safety course!!!!! Oh yea... purdy bike....
