My Dad's new motorcycle here. He was a Harley rider for years and has recently converted over to the other side, along with most of his buddies who have also moved away from their Harley's and purchased either BMW's or similar bikes. Brother Brian in Flagstaff, AZ also has this same bike except in RED. They are planning a road trip up together up to Seattle on their bikes in Summer 2006.
Living in Fresno, Dad's able to ride in the countryside throughout most of the year, since the weather is fairly mild -- hot in the summer but mild winters. When he's bundled up in his riding gear and helmet, he's often mistaken for one of those young foolish kids breaking the law. Except when a poor unsuspecting police officer pulls over my Dad for an infraction of the law, they don't know who they're dealing with, and certainly they wish they had just kept their eyes on that newspaper they were reading just moments before their day was completely ruined.
