Bought my first motorcycle....holy crap!

[RBatson]

I really like the Warrior but I try to buy American when ever possible. I almost bought a Victory Vegas (Victory is the only bike made 100% in the USofA) but the DWG was a perfect fit. The Big Dogs are nice too.

That Busa should be a comfortable bike, its a sport touring bike. I contemplated the ZX12(over the busa) because it was more comfortable to me(I liked the way it looked too btw). I still wouldn't completely rule out getting one if I decided I wanted another sportbike. I'm afraid you may have gotten the wrong bike friend. Did you go and sit on all the bikes to see which was the most comfortable? I've seen bikes that I absolutely loved the looks of but would make my legs cramp as soon as I put my foot on the pegs.

As far as the insurance, I always tried to pay cash or pay with a credit card so I wouldn't have to carry full coverage. Liability is almost nothing, its the collision and comp that cost ya.

Please be careful brother.
