Thanks for the welcome; I would love to pick one up now but getting a bike in Japan is a nightmare to say the least. It is going to cost about $3,000 just to get my Bonnie licensed on the road due to the import vehicle test. Unfortunately, the speedy will have to wait until this assignment is over. I did see the bike for sale with only 400 miles and would love to jump on that...oh well, I guess the timing for that just isn't there for me.
