Got one
« on: May 23, 2016, 06:52:05 PM »
Hey Guys. Just picked up a 2012 with about 2500 miles a week ago. Looks and rides great. I still have my 2006 Goldwing but probably not for long. Planning on risers or wedges and a throttlemeister. That should do me for awhile. Possibly a wider seat down the road. Pretty fired up right now.

Don't be afraid to thrash it! You can't hurt these bikes. They're bullet proof. 8)
And fun as heck to rail the twisties on in comfort. ;D

Congratulations on the new bike.  Hope you get to ride it more than the previous owner!  Don't understand how someone can get a bike and ride it that little.  I have more miles on my 2016 than that after just a few months. 

The Throttlemeister is a great choice, that was the first farkle I added.  Be sure to add some loc-tite when you install it. Risers and grips are also an important comfort item.  Canyon cages are good insurance against damage on a tip-over.
