I've done it now... - 3/16/2006 9:07:09 PM    OldFatGuy Posts: 1642 Joined: 12/15/2005 From: Missouri, good ol' USA Status: offline I've ridden my F4i for about 2200 miles since I got it in December (not a lot of good riding weather). I enjoyed it a lot. But, I'm 6 foot and weigh 225 and felt like the bike didn't have enough oomph when taking off or at low RPMs. So I did it. I went in to my dealer at lunch today and told him I wanted a new '06 1000RR. Told him I knew I would eat it on the trade, but I got some saddle time and didn't kill myself while getting my feet wet on the F4i. So this afternoon, I drove home on my new Red/Black 1000RR. I only got about 30 miles on it, but it was a blast. And man, does that thing have some torque! Anyway, just wanted to pass on the info. Hopefully the weather will get nice again in a few days and I'll be able to post some pics. _____________________________ '06 1000RR Red/Black '04 1800 Goldwing Candy Black Cherry '05 Shadow VLX Deluxe Pearl White (Wife's) Ride Safe, Ride Often, Ride Far Post #: 1

Each time I tell them to give me their best price right off the bat because I'm buying the bike today and I don't haggle. One time they didn't because my normal sales guy wasn't there and I ended up buying from someone else. I used to go to Carbondale a lot when I was younger... haven't been that way in quite a while. < Message edited by OldFatGuy -- 3/16/2006 9:45:35 PM > _____________________________ '06 1000RR Red/Black '04 1800 Goldwing Candy Black Cherry '05 Shadow VLX Deluxe Pearl White (Wife's) Ride Safe, Ride Often, Ride Far (in reply to cbr04) Post #: 3
