So, let me get this straight?
You've just gotten your full licence. And you want to go straight from that to an 1800 v-twin... One with a very wide rear tire? And you're going to put your wife on the back...?
Because you seem a bit simple, I'll ask it another way - you're going from a learner bike to the largest capacity tourer in one jump...
Would you be kind enough to mount some camera's on your new bike, it won't be of any use to you, but afterwards, we'll replay the footage for years.
Popcorn anyone??![]()
It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.
It's less of an issue than you think it is madbikeboy.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
I'm just thrilled that he isn't considering a 1000cc sportsbike.
It's still a jump, I think my point is that there is a happy middle ground and his experience is likely to be better going to the middle ground first....
Bless his enthusiasm. (Read between the lines here...).

I have plenty of experiance riding bikes of all sizes... the diference is now that i finaly got my full i can now do it legaly... i Had my restricted for about 6 years just never got round to geting my full till now...
The GN250 and the DR350 are the only bikes i own at the moment but my step dad has a vn900 that i ride quite often...
Have also raced a Honda CBX250 and a work mates Triumph TT600 and KTM 500 motard at manfield track days.
So i know how to handle a bike and probs race past most of you on the motorway on my GN250 from Upper Hutt to Welly and back... 18 mins today from thorndon quey to my garage.

Toaster has one, and he loves it.
Might be worth contacting him and getting a first-hand opinion on the bike.
they're big
they're bad
they're slow
they're damn ugly
built like a tank really
It is what it is
bmz2 has one as well.
Watch out though, if you get one of these you'll be spending all your dough on bling!
Meself, if I was looking for a bigger cruiser (or if I suddenly won the lotto and didn't need to commute), I'd get the C109R. Mmmmmm, one sexy motorcycle...![]()
Redefining slow since 2006...
It's a Honda.

What's a Honda? The M109?
I took the Road and Sport demo for a spin. Bit of a laugh - plenty of grunt though, but I had issue with dragging my heels when cornering. Was concerned to see some rust showing on a few bolt-heads - a bit like a GN250 really! Wouldn't want to leave it out in the rain.....
