Might be pulling the trigger on a 2011 tomorrow
08/02/13 9:03 PM

So, there is a 2011 with 3900 miles on it at a local dealership, I may buy it tomorrow. Have not test ridden it yet. Looks new. Ten grand, easy financing. Insurance is going to be reasonable.

Bone stock.

This would be my first 14. I've had a ZRX for years and have worked on it a bit. Any words of advice, things to look for?

Nervous

Do it! I want to see pics posted tomorrow. You won't be able to wipe the smile off of your face after you ride it.

That's right Bitchez! The second photo is better than the first, because you already know what it looks like and it's in MY garage.

Looks real nice! How many miles did you put on it already? Just breezing around the town showing off your new toy!

Stormy today so I just wanted to get it home safe, only about 20 miles.

I gotta say though, this bike elicits responses. I got used to occasional admiration on the ZRX, nods from adults, excited waves from kids, but this is a whole new level. I went past a small group of riders at an intersection and their faces just lit up when they saw me coming, and they were riding cruisers (hence being able to see their faces).

It is in almost new condition. The previous owner was a seventy-something man who died of a heart attack not long after buying it. I respect that guy for seizing the day while he could.

No tickets yet :D

Today I've been alternating between joy and feelings of "what have I gotten myself into, this is crazy".
I also do miss my Rex, but I can't have two motorcycles in the garage and I've been ready for a change.

I'm not worried, feelings of doubt blow off the back at about 130.
