So im an Idiot...

#1 Unread post by secgeek »

I went to the Honda dealer this morning to pick up my nighthawk from service... The dealer said the parts havent come in yet and it might be another week or two.... Since my MSF is in 3 weeks I went off on the guy... He told me yesterday that it would be ready today and now the parts aren't here.... I bought the hawk as a beater bike so I would get into riding again.. After 200 miles I was back into riding... So I took off went to the harley dealer to check out a 883... The harley dealer tried to upsell me to a 1200 something I didnt want or want to spend doh on... Went back to the honda dealer and after some bitching got a sick deal on a new spirit 750...

So now I have 2 bikes and a scooter... and my wallet hurts... Pics to come tomorrow as I spent the better part of the day breaking her in.

The Spirit is a sweet ride. I looked at those when I was shopping around. Congrats on the new bike.

The Honda 750 is a great bike as long as you don't have to ride a heavy passenger on the back, its a much better choice than a Harley 883. The pain in ur wallet would never go away if you would have bought the Harley.

My first bike was a Honda 750, the red w/ flames. If you are into cruisers the cool thing about that bike is how much chrome it comes with stock.

Good job on the bike selection...only, were you really after buying a new bike or did the dealer just convince you that you were? If that's the case, I have some ocean front property here in Michigan I'd like to show you... :wink:

In my heart I wanted a new bike before I even bought the nighthawk.... If the shop didnt have a showroom I would of still bought a bike yesterday just not there... I did leave them to go to the harley dealer and the ducati dealer before I came back.

Hehe... No I was looking at the 695 monster and realized that I would still end up wanting a cruiser.... Im too old and fat :frusty: for a standard...

I started another thread with the shots.. Already got 150 miles on it.
