Hello from Western NC.

[Sumo64c]

Trading in a well farked 15 versys 650LT for a new 18' busa tomorrow, going the sport touring route so some givi luggage on the side and top case unless I go the ventura rack for the backrest. The wife said she really enjoyed going fast and fast through the curves so it's all about the Mrs. being happy.

The pillion always chooses the bike. Good luck!

The wife actually liked the mounting/dismounting of the busa as it was easier than the c14/fjr/k1600 which are all taller rides. So picked this up today.

Didn’t like the Busa on Saturday but bought one today? What changed?

[Bailey9r]

to the community, and as Six suggested above look into the Corbin seat with builtin backrest and she will be more comfy AND secure cause this is a whole new realm of power.

It was easier for the wife to mount/dismount the Busa' compared to the others....she's a half pint/ 5ft tall.

I do too man.
My wife is a high school teacher, and loves her job, and I love her. I have tremendous respect for her, and her abilities.
I love my Ma(and Dad), who taught me to respect women. I love my daughter, she's awesome.
....and if you could see how the 3 change their minds.
If a "woman's perogotive" is now offensive(it used to be called, the truth), that's ok, I'll wait...they'll change their minds

[sixpack577]

plus SOMEBODY has to do my laundry and cook,

Haha...there it is

[ali123]

Haha...there it is

the world is changing.... but genetics are genetics... even at my job, I CRINGE when I see a 130 lb female in a red dot position... that's the people who respond to riots/fights/emergencies..... I PRAY that nobody gets hurt... trying to prove a point,
