My new bike

Hi guys, I bought a new bike last week and peomised to get some pics up asap so here they are on my site. Its such a nice bike and a perfect size. My last one was an FXR 150 and with me being almost 7ft and 100kgs it did not do the job.
Its called a honda xelvis (the elvis for short) and its greal. It feels like a really big bike even though its only 250cc.

Nice looking King of RocknRoll you got there

Definitely a move up from the old bike.

Hopefully though, it DOESN'T "shake, rattle and roll"

Very nice.

What did you pay for it?

it cost me $3000 at red barron and they threw in $300 to spend in shop and 6 months wof and reg. I got the pack rack and pack, all ventura stuff, with the $300.
bloody good deal I thought, it's done 16,000ks but it looks in new condition and rides so well. I dont think its as nippy as the FXR but has more grunt, also much higher top end.

So far no shake, rattle or rolling

Yes, that is a good deal, on a lovely bike. Well done.
