gtrider9 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I rode a number of new bikes bikes last year. I liked the CB500F but not quite enough to buy one. Then, just when I thought I was in the clear, I rode a used FZ-07, darn it. I knew right then I wouldn't rest until I had one. So, as of yesterday I am a proud owner of a new graphite '15. I made sure a service manual was part of the deal; as soon as it arrives, it'll be time to start tweaking a few things. First items on the list will be to find some fork gaiters that fit right and install a real helmet lock. I may shorten up the license plate hanger a bit too. The gray bodywork needs some brightening up, although the blue (ish?) frame and wheels are starting to grow on me. If all the snow here ever melts I may even ride the thing a little bit. Mine must be an early bike 'cause that warning sticker on the tank cover was a bugger to get off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member rowdy Posted January 11, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted January 11, 2016 Welcome to the club! It's an addictive bike, that's for sure. I'm in Utah, so I haven't been on mine for 3 or 4 weeks now, and I'm suffering from withdrawals. I think the warning stickers are always a bugger to get off. I think it should be illegal to put an ugly-ass sticker like that right in the middle of a nice painted tank. Good, luck and hope to see more posts. Why can't left turners see us?
