Title: Hello everyone
Post by: CeeRider on September 25, 2015, 09:51:07 PM

Hello All,
Wanted to find a place where I can learn from other riders about this awesome bike.  I’m an experienced rider who is always learning how to ride smoother, safer and faster.  I purchased my Connie the end of November 2012 through my local Costco for a deal.  Sold my 2001 Honda RC51 then the 2006 Suzuki GSX-R750 and never looked back.  My new Connie is way more comfortable and awesome to ride.   I’m still able to hit the twisties, and ride until the sun goes down with pure enjoyment.  Riding a motorcycle has never been this fun and can only get better with a little knowledge and a lot of bucks. 

Other riders ask me all the time that bike looks comfortable and how does it ride? I tell all of them if they have a chance to ride one they might buy one. 

My family rides motorcycles and grew up around Harley Davidson's and BMW’s but I like those bikes but LOVE my Connie.  For now I’m catching up on my reading here on the C14 forum so I appreciate everyone’s input. 

Sharing is caring so here is a pic of my bike.

Ride Safe.

Welcome CC Rider- Great looking ride in my favorite color, but it has that huge low hanging bazooka appendage.   :'( :'(

Thanks connie14boy - Yeah a few buddies wanted to Powder Coat it so it would blend in and look invisible.  :)  Still on the fence with the exhaust but I'm sure other rider's posting will share their reviews and suggestions. 

Ride Safe.
