New to Fireblades

Hi all. I recently bought a 929, great bike. Any one have any suggestions for a new Honda owner? I've always had Kawasakis or Suzukis for the street in the past.

I've had 350 & 750 Kawasaki triples, a couple GS750s, a 900 Ninja, GS500f & several dirt bikes. You?

I've got the 929 too and love it.Most mods you'll do are purely cosmetic so it's really based on what you like.
My suggestion for what to do with your Honda? Ride it!

Re: New to Fireblades

Before the 929 the 900 Ninja was my favorite stocker. One of the GS750's was my favorite overall - I built a full 918 MTC motor and modified front and rear suspension and just about everything else. The 929 reminds me a lot of it even though it was about 40 pounds heavier when I was done with it.
