8Rider6 Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 New to the forum, not "completely" new to riding, but don't have a ton of experience either. I got my first bike in 2008. It was a '96 Suzuki Bandit 600, pic below:http://img571.imageshack.us/img571/2...ndit600web.jpgI sold that in March 2011 (not completely out of choice, was my last year of college and was double majoring, so at that time I wasn't working and needed the money).Since graduating, I've been working full time now and got a 2002 Honda 919 in May:This picture is from the day I rode it back from WVhttp://img209.imageshack.us/img209/5973/honda9192.jpgHere are some from yesterday after I got the Barkbuster handguards installed, I also took the flyguard off. I think it looks better without and found it threw more wind up towards my shoulders/face.http://imageshack.us/a/img542/7564/919withwindscreen.jpghttp://imageshack.us/a/img717/1431/919nowindscreen.jpgI also got some SW Motech Crash bars and some other parts on the way. I'll be installing those, doing an oil/filter change, and probably air filter change soon as well. Unfortunately I also need new tires, and probably chain and sprockets too... Things do get expensive.I live around Columbus and I know a couple people that do track days at Mid-Ohio and I'd like to get into trying them next Spring, so I'd be looking at getting another bike around March to late April. At this point, I'm leaning towards an SV650s for a track bike. Not something too powerful, it's relatively cheap, huge aftermarket available, and I'd likely keep it street legal too. I could go on about getting ready for my first track day, but that's probably best left to another thread instead of an intro... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not looking to pull the trigger til March/April though06-07 650s I think he is gunna ask low-mid 3ks on it, not 100% sure. I know he is lookin at buying a RC51. It's got pretty low miles, never down, he is the second owner originally owned by an older guy who never really rode it.Edit: I believe it is 100% stock aswell Edited November 13, 2012 by Exarch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
