Drove back to my hometown, stopped at the DOT and took the written test to get my permit(I had studied the WI DOT Motorcyclist's Handbook the night before). Passed, got my permit and I've put about 50 or 60 miles on it so far.
I definitely like riding it. Good power and there's not much peakiness in the powerband. Seems to handle good, though I have very little riding experience so I pretty much creep through corners at the posted limit.
I look forward to spending 10-15 bucks a week on gas, while my V-8 F150 gas hog rots in my garage
This week I'm going to go buy a good riding jacket/gloves.
Here's a picture of it:
