Hello,

I am new here and figured I would start out with my intro.

I recently purchased my first motorcyle and then took a BSF course. I convinced my wife I needed the bike after comparing my 8 cyclinder Ford pickup fuel bill per month to the cost of having a motorcycle.

She said "O'kay" but I think she knew better :).

Anyway, I have a Suzuki S40 Boulevard LS650. I wish I had waited to research it first but, you gotta run with what you brought to the race.

Any how, Questions? Feel free to ask.

The reason I regret it is because I can't get accessories for it.

The position I have to put my legs in while I ride is uncomfortable. I have tried to find larger front pegs but I can not find anything.

As for where am I? Georgia.

I will update my profile to show this.

Hmmmm....a friend of mine had the controls on his bike moved forward. He is tall and needed a bit more leg room.

If you want some comfort for highway riding, you can put engine guards on and put highway pegs on the engine guards.

Don't give up your search....something is bound to turn up.

I'm looking into engine guards this week. I alreay found several places that carry them. So, its just a matter of buying and putting them on. :)
