nice, its good to see that someone else on here that rides sportbikes as well. I still have my r6 planning on turning it to a trackbike.
good luck and watch the brakes... (see my post "Finally Happened")hahah good luck.. btw I hope you kept the sportbike... I wasd told i was going to miss the r6, and i finally rode it before my accident and found myself saying wow the hog dont do it like this.. I still love both bikes, but they each have their own flavor ya kno what i mean.

 

Right on I too was like you 4 years ago. my transition was slow I went from gsxr's and cbr's to a v-twin suzuki. less than a year after getting the v twin fever I went for the Harley. The problem is I still love the twisty's my stuff drags all the time. I too will never go back. I'm such a Harley hound now that if I bought a sport bike it'd be a buehl.

 

Now you'll learn what an addiction really is. Chrome this... Black that....Bigger badder louder longer...I GOTTA HAVE IT ALL!!!!!!!!!!

 

Congrats, I don't knowhow you did it, having a new bike and not riding it for that long!

 

Welcome from PA. Lots of great info available here. Good luck with the new scoot. Great color selection.

 

Well like you I started riding on a Honda. Put nearly 100,000 miles on one in 13 years. When the first SG adds hit the scene I knew I had to have one. Bought mine in 06 and kept the Honda thinking I would ride the SG around home and keep the Gold Wing for touring. Only tool about 3 months to realize I had not ridden the GW since buying the SG. Sold the GW for nearly what I paid for it 13 years ago and used the $ to upgrade and ad things to the SG. I am at 17,000 miles now on the SG and still get that same grin every time I start it. Never had the same feeling with the GW. It was a great ride but by no means a Harley.

Ride Safe,

Mike

 

Great choice in bikes.....You'll love it. That color would be my second choice. Just kidding! Awesome looking bike you have.

Ride safe.

 

Nice, love that red.

 

Can't live without my sportbike,I'd sell the Harley before I'd sell it. You're gonna have to completely alter your riding style. But just like there's nothing like a good sportbike, there's nothing like a touring Harley. Having both is ideal IMO.
