My new ride

Thanks guys - to all of you who had to "advance" to something bigger, not necessarily better, to instill in me that burning desire to get a bigger bike.
Here's my new ride, a pristine Suzuki 2005 S50, with flyscreen, bag supports, saddlebags, (not in the pics, I took the bags off for the 4-5 hr 70-75 mph ride home on the trailer), passenger seat and sissy bar, shaft drive,Cobra exhaust (sounds better than any Harley on the road, but I don't think ER would approve - may have to get baffles to put inside and quiet it a little, just for the neighbors. But maybe, just fuckem, but drive slow down the street.). This bike only weighs 443lbs, handles just like the GZ, and is QUICK, plus 55mpg! A little intimidating going up to a bigger, faster, bike than the GZ, but a little more practice and you get used to it for a blast of a ride.
The worst thing is, it's been raining heavily here every day for the past week and I can't get out.
Bummer.
I look at my GZ next to it and get that feeling that "what a great bike, what a great experience, I'll be sad to see you go", unless my GF wants to take the MSfF course and go riding, then of course I'll keep it forever.
