Best bike I've ever had!!!!


The 919 is the best bike I've ever owned. I found it at the local dealer 2 weeks ago. Brand new leftover '06 model. Got a huge discount. I've wanted one of these ever since they were introduced here in the US. Finally........
Anyway, been really busy lately and last saturday, after it sitting for 2 weeks in the garage with 55 miles on it, I finally got it out to put 100+ on it. All I can say is WOW! I've had about 6 bikes in my life and the closest any has come was a Kawa ZR7S, but it pales in comparison. I've never had a bike with 100+ hp before. I know there are alot of other supersports out there that'd blow the 919 away but man, this thing could get me in trouble too fast anyway. I'm very happy!
I hope to learn alot from these forums when I get a chance to surf them. Looking forward to mods etc etc etc.
I love the naked look and feel but I might need some kind of touring shield when the weather turns colder. But that will come off when it warms up.

Ride safe.........

Welcome and congrats! So, no 919 owner keeps this bike stock. What are your plans for her?

Heh... mines still still stock as well... 1100 miles-3 months. I do plan on the comp. werks fender kit, and some new front signals to match. Awesome bike though, no question.

My 919 is the FIRST bike I've ever had. Just thought I would share. Oh yeah, I think the bike is great too.

Re: Best bike I've ever had!!!!

I have been shopping for a nice bike to save some duckets on this crazy So. Cal Gas...taking the driver course next week and I had my mind on a Shadow 750...met the nicest Gent at Simi Valley Honda (Plug for Daryl? ) and he asked me what I was looking for etc..needless to say we walked out back and the moment I saw her I knew I had to have her..minimalistic body cladding...looks like its ready to leap from a standstill...my first bike ever but I have a feeling based on everyone's comments that I will be very happy..I will report back when I first get fire her up...sigh...this course won't be coming fast enough.

Re: Best bike I've ever had!!!!

Sorry, been busy lately. To answer what my plans are...well, frame sliders, windscreen (don't know if I want short or tall yet), PC3, centerstand, rear mount helmet locks, at least a topbox, and anything else as the $$$ allow. As of now, it's still stock but I'm still happy!

You picked a great color for that 919! Good luck with the new machine.
