    Well I did it. Just picked up a 2005 silver Interceptor. Have ridden cruisers for the last 5 years, finally decided I wanted to learn to turn a bike. After lots of shopping and research, decided the VFR was the bike for me. So far it seems like a very fun ride.

    Have fun on that new bike and be careful. It's probably got a lot more get-up-and-go than most of the cruisers you have ridden. Welcome to the family!

    They are all fun!

    I have a garage full of scoots. I sell HD for a living, but if I was bigger than
    5'8" and 170# I'd have a Valkerye (pardon spelling, Alabama and British education.):tongue:

    Hey LEgs,

    I am 5'6" 190#. Loved my Valk, would still be riding it but lost it in a Tornado.

    The Valkyrie is such a cool looking cruiser but at a 780lb's would have hate being under it when it landed. :confused:
