    Since Seattle already had the "Hello from Seattle" intro I figured some diversity from the puget sound area could be fun :)

    Just bought a shiny new candy apple red 2007 viffer. This is my first non air cooled bike in more than 6 years and MAN DID I MISS IT :) Loving the V-4 sound both pre and during VTEC ranges. It is now my new commuter between Tacoma and North Seattle, 35 miles each way is a load more fun on the viffer than in the car :).

    owned a harley 1200c sportster for the last 6 years. I know, I know...overpriced underperforming uncomfortable turds :) I tell you this there weren't many sport bikes that I couldn't keep up with in the corners around here :)...until my bike got too hot to ride :) Also owned a suzuki v-twin as well. Prior to that was a Suzuki gixer 750 (1993). Of the bikes so far I like the viffer the best...however, I feel like a mom with there first kid...anything that seems strange I find myself logging in here or calling the shop to make sure all is well :) Break-in period SUCKS! Anyhow, thanks for the welcomes compadres!
