Re: Downpayment

There's mixed opinions on that Melt. IMO, the GZ does well on backroads and up to 55-60 roads. I think it is the wrong bike for interstates, freeways, etc. where the posted limit is 65 or higher and the true speed of traffic is 75-80. It's actually not too bad on smooth asphalt, but it's unnerving on grooved, wavy or scalloped cement pavement. I've been told a windshield helps and I have one on the way.

You might check with the folks along the Ohio Indiana turnpike runs. If I recall correctly those roads used to be a little on the rough side.
