Congrats, Tin!!

You're a bit smaller than I imagined. Looks like you'll need to lower your bike for sure!

How's it run and did everything go smooth w/ the transaction?

enjoy!!

Thanks Kim.
Yes, I guess I will have to lower it to the max.
I went to my bank and got a bank check pay to her Name. This way I will have some sort of receipt. I also wrote up a brief contract. She will call me once she receives the title and I will hand over the rest of the money.
I'm so glad i'm done with the shopping.
Now, the real challenge begins.
Today will hit 86 and it sucks so bad that I will have to look at it instead of riding it.
It's currently at my bro's house.
What should I do before I take it out?
Change oil? filter? etc? It only has 106 so I don't know if that's neccessary.
I went to the local dealer and request a service. He said to bring it in, but after I mentioned it only has 106 he said to come back when it hits 600 miles.

lol... now comes the hard part of figuring out which road you want to go down as far as break in. do a search on "break in" and be ready to do some reading.

you get the owner's manual with the bike? if so, I recommend reading through it completely at least once so you know where to find the info in it and what it has to offer. it's a great tool in helping you keep your baby healthy.

Congrats on the bike, be easy on the turns till you break the tires in. You will see strips forming as the new tires become less slick/shiny.

I just got re-geared up at motorcycle superstore. We bought some alpinestars GP Plus gloves for my wife that were $99.95. Thought about going cheap too, but she works on a computer for a living. So, went for it.

If you spend over $200, they give you $20 off with a coupon code. I have it floating around somewhere. Free shipping over $75, and awesome return policy.
