Enjoy it V! I bought my Speedy in Feb and let it wait at the dealership until I took/passed my class 3 long months later. I had never driven a road bike and hadn't ridden on 2 wheels in almost 20 years, but picked her up the day after class. I thought about delivery or having a friend ride her home from the dealership for me before I took the class, but once I'd was in the class I knew there was no way anyone but me was going to put the first miles on her.. and that I wasn't waiting for delivery. I'd say wait until after class to make your decision if you can.

The single most stressful part of that first ride on her was getting my brand new speedy up the dealer's very steep inclined lot onto the street. Stall... Stall... Stall... Stall... I finally let her rip and have been trying to peel the grin off my face ever since. I've never felt like I was in over my head or that the bike is too big and I've been on a bunch of different roads/situations in just one month/1000 miles.

Enjoy your new Speedy. You did get the straight black version yes? I understand they are the quickest. Something about the colored paints seems to slow down the others...


Set the gearshift for the high gear of your soul...
