Well, checked out the C-50 and I looked like a stick figure on there.  Lol was little too big for my frame..

I did find 2009 Yamaha FZ6-R with about 8000 miles for a good price and jumped on it.  

Hard cases will come off for regular riding, and the seller spent about $400 at the dealer getting the 8000 mile tune-up before I get to pick it up.

Savage is a good bike.. nimble and awesome MPG.  But the cruiser just wasn't for me... lol

cool!  my favorite color too!  should be a good ride

Heh, it probably reads, "this guy is a squid" rofl  

I wouldn't have someone put a foreign language on my bike unless I could read it and understand it first.

Yeah... wish folks would change...and just see a person. Politically corrective-ness sux... but ya know, how the heck can you explain to someone that Jack is a little Asian guy and you never thought to ask how he wanted you to explain who he was? Most people I meet just say " hiya i'm terry" or "hi i'm marie" and whenever I say yeah I know terry and marie...and someone says "who are they?" ummmm well.... If you describe them physically, yer likely to get boo'ed or looked at funny and if you try to guess their race...you get politically corrected....guess i'll never be right.... I'll just say " well if you don't know Jack, then wait till you meet him".

Made a friend in Japan while I was stationed there. Buddy and me were drinking some beer on the sea wall in Okinawa, some local dudes (about 6 of them) came up and asked about our music, in hacked up English. Well we offered some beer and let them rustle through our tapes. Discussion turned to i'd like to learn a little bit of English, and my buddy started pointing to his nose and saying "thingy", ear "girl thingy", I whacked him on the arm and said "hey that aint' right!, don't disrespect these guys, they are just out having fun like we are", that got a chuckle from one of them, he pointed at me and motioned to the side. In plain English he says " would you like to come over to my house tomorrow? I am having a get together and would like some of my friends to meet a real American" turned out to be a great week, met a great bunch of friends and got to see how a real Japanese dojo was run
