'Nother Newbie
« on: May 22, 2022, 10:14:56 »
Hi all, Just about to get back into biking after a 10 year layoff. Last bike was a Fazer 1000, now looking for a late 650 as looking to do some touring and at 66 years old I think I'd better be sensible.

Hi Mongoose and welcome. I think you meant 65 years young. I think you will enjoy your V-Strom 650 and not the miss the grunt of 1000cc's.
