first time bike buyer / rider

TLRs have horrid ergos, I’m more comfortable on my 675.

how much? mabye the thread starter might be interested. EDIT nm 636 is more than 3grand sry

I took the course last year, dropped $1700 on a 1998 GS500 with an ugly paintjob and only has 3k miles. Im going to throw it on craigslist in a month for $2k and I bet you I get that price. Awesome starter bike. Now I can move on to a 600 safely.

+$300 for me.

The 2nd day I bought the bike I dropped it and broke the clutch. I have not fallen off of it yet (thank god), but theres going to be a day that I will. I once got caught into a skid, and almost wiped out but the MSF course taught me how to get out of it.

Dont buy a new bike.

i will probably ask ~$4800 for my 636. it’s an '06, only 950 miles on it. vortex adjustable rearsets, gp shift, armor bodies bodywork, leo vince titanium exhaust, gpr steering damper, frame, swingarm and bar-end sliders w/rear spool sliders

I sold both my first and second bikes for more than I paid for them, and both were in poorer condition when I sold them considerably. :mamoru:

damn thats a good deal…should sell real quick…glws (original speedo?)
