Re: Hello All


The 929 & 954 are both good bikes but you should get at least a year of experience under your belt before moving up to the bigger bikes

I'm thinkin' that, too, although it's not just a time frame, it's the number of miles ridden. How many miles have you put on in those 3 months? If you absolutely can't wait, just be careful with the throttle. It has gobs more power and acceleration.

I won't deny the resemblance, but I registered on MH just today, only to thank my new State Farm insurance agent (he has his own forum there).

Re: Hello All

Well with 4500 miles you should at least have a good feel for the bike. I think u may be alright on a larger bike, just watch the throttle hand. I know on my 929 its kind of on or off, but its not nearly as mean as my TL1000S. Whatever u do enjoy the ride.
