Nice purchase liablemtl.
If I was to venture back into the realm of Yamaha the FZ1 would be my choice. I ride a 1200 Bandit so it would not be that big a leap.

Thanks, man...

Yeah... the weather in Oregon is actually quite well suited for riding. There are a lot of naysayers who say it isn't possible... but we know better. :mrgreen:

Needless to say... I'm totally stoked. I can't wait to spend some time on Gundam FZ1.

The fair weather riders are still not venturing out. But I managed to get some riding in today, even if I had to clear a snow drift out from the front of my garage, it was almost 50 today and the roads were in good shape aside from some wet spots from the snow melt.

I was far from the only person out riding today

Way to go Brother, sweet set of wheels. I see you managed to get one of those "motorcycle only" signs out of the dealership too. Very smart man.
