Sweet! What color did you get? Did you spring for the ABS model? I'm hoping to buy a blue ABS in the Spring.

Thanks! But uh, does my Ninja 250 not count as a machine? I know it's small, but come on!

congrats Scott, and welcome. I look forward to hearing your riding impression of the Sprint after owning an FZ1, which is a fine cycle as well.

hope the bike gets here in a week or so if not sooner.

thinking the FJR is old looking like the Honda ST1300 is. Plus always like the Triumphs but they never really had a good liter sportbike but now that I am wanting a true ST bike, now is the time to make the change and even the wife is wanting to make the change
