Right-click on the pic... look for a menu item that says something like, "copy image location"... click it...
Then, come here and click the 3rd menu icon, (if you hover on it, it should say "insert image", click it... paste the copied image address between the image brackets...
It should look like this...

test.

bike I traded my Savage in for.

It will sure haul the mail no doubt about that.

Two things I don't like about it. 1) it's like parking a big pickup. You just don't zip into a parking lot and look for the first place. Nope, you've got find a place level or slightly uphill so you can use the center stand as the kickstand is absolutely worthless.  Too short, stands the bike almost straight up and it's too easy to knock over. At 678 lbs or something like that, it ain't like grabbing a Savage and yanking it back up.

2) its a sport-touring bike meaning it's not like a Goldwing for example. I've gone 240 miles (one full tank) without stopping and it's not as comfortable as it should be.

But, man on man, it will hug curves like you can't believe.  Top speed is 120+, but I've never come close to that;  95 and it's as stable as a train. Acceleration is great, can get you away from crazy drivers in the blink of an eye. Just remember to hold on. Two hard cases on the side and a top case means I can take work tools and overnight stuff. I've taken it on  a couple overnight work trips.

ha ha! good catch!
let me correct that, man OH man....

The adjustable windshield is something I never thought about but would be hard to have another bike without one. I use it all the time now.went out for 50 mile ride yesterday on interstate, two lanes and city streets, different height for each one.

Yea, the handlebars suck for any length of time. Took it on a six hour ride once and I found myself turning on the throttle lock and free handing on flat straights to give my arms a break. I put risers on it, which helps but not enough. You can buy a bracket that allows the use of round bars which I could do, but then you gotta get new brake cables etc...

All in all, it scores a solid 8 out of 10 on my scale. But, I'll trade it in this winter for something else, just not sure what yet.

Great...
I just taught JOG a new way to make fun of me... ...
