Good chioce young man!
You do know this is going to officially be the longest week of the year and it's all your fault

Pete.l

like you I've had my share of 'other bikes' blackbird, bmw, harley, and gsxr 1000k6.......the storm is the only one I miss..............and its the one I'm going to get again when funds permit.............don't ever sell it.............you will regret it.

Welcome to the forum, you must come to the meets...........you'll have a blast.

Paul

Well done WKN

This will be a long week Pete is right

Chris.

PS. The only advice I can give on riding this big V twin is:

(A) change up into 2nd gear a.s.a.p. for a smoother change, you don't need to rev it out in 1st gear before you change, just let the torque do the work.

(B) I found it quite easy to lock up the back wheel by changing down too quickly into 2nd or 1st gear when approaching a T junction or roundabout when hard on the front brake (it makes the back end light), but I'm sure you'll soon get used to that. I managed to do that on my test ride at the first roundabout.

Enjoy

Chris.
