I just put down a deposit yesterday on a 250.

I was talking to the manager and he said alot of dealers are taking way more deposits then they are getting bikes. I would be careful you're not waiting around for a bike you're not going to get. One thing, dealers can't "order more". They were given an ...

Why is there such a difference in the values shown by KBB and NADA? The same Triumph Bonneville is $4360 KBB and $2585 NADA :roll:

Ive been thinking lately (only today really) about that. And the thing is, the 2007 looks ok, not great, a little dated. Im not looking to buy a bike and then sell in 2-6 months really.

thanks-

Ii just sat on one at a shop. It's a nice bike. But I'm 6'2 and I couldn't plant both my feet completely down. I want to be abe to do this on my first bike. Is the rear height adjustable? I need about 1 1/2- 2"s.

Thanks- That's what I was thinking. I rode a dual sport at the MSF and it was really comfortable.

so i ruptured a lower disk a few years ago and it acts up from time to time. what stance is best for the lower back- street, standard or cruiser?

I just took it this past weekend. It was alot of fun and very informative. I went in without any experience, and came out some what confident of the BASICS. Now, you may need a great deal of patience, depending on how quick you pick it up. I have been seriously riding bicycles for my whole life, 37 ...
