I got my TBA last Sept.after not riding for about 10 years.When I told my brother-in-law what I was getting and how many cc it was he went on and on about how it will be under powered and I wont be happy.When it came time to pick up the bike I asked him to drive it home for me since after 10 years I didn't want to ride the 13 or so highway miles.Bottom line he loved the bike and secretly tells our friends how well it runs.You will love the bike
