[QUOTE=Joe12RK;16539483]Nice bike, enjoy!


But take the advice in this forum with a grain of salt -
Number 4... BANG!!!

"If you don't buy and memorize the owners manual, the service manual and the parts manual you will be banished to the hall of shame"

welcome from Spartan Country Michigan!!
you will get much input....some good....some not so!!!
I would recommend you get factory service manual and parts manual. no need to memorize them, just have them handy to read!! I also recommend a notebook and record all your service, maintenance, repairs, etc.... you will appreciate the records down the road! and don't trust your fuel gauge.... learn how much your tank holds and how many miles you get before you run out. learn your bike!!!
and watch for the crazies...both on the road and on here!!!

Thank you all for the welcomes! In Southern Maine we definitely have short riding season, by November the bikes are getting tucked away and we are getting the sleds ready for winter!
