Hello all,
Just bought my 09 GZ about a month ago (put on ~500 miles), what a blast!
My last bike was a Honda VTX 1300, a great bike with shaft drive, and water cooled, but not nearly as fun as the GZ.
With this bike you really feel part of the experience, not to mention much more practical for my purposes. And believe it or not I actually feel more comfortable on the highways (as long as I stay under 65 mph). My buddies can't figure it out, but due to work schedule I usually ride alone - and at my age I don't worry about impressing anyone.

I have been lurking around, picking up tips and enjoying the conversations. Hope to attempt my first valve inspection/adjustment. Have seen some nice info here, but is this something a fairly non mechanical person could (or should) do?

Thanks, and sorry for being so long winded!
