I know where there are 3 laverdas sittin on show room floor, and would not be scared to buy.If you want the bike go get it may be one of those things that if you dont you will be kickin your own butt in the future.
Yea I would have to agree with Mr ninja, the wife and I will stick to our guns, besides try to take her pink eagle 50, she just might say something like smile and wait for flash.
The kawasaki shop in Versallis will let you test ride anything, I have test rode every thang from snowmobiles to dirts and our c-14, and have bought 4 of the 5 I tried everything out and they are great people to deal with, if you you go tell them Dugan sent you and ride you will.
