I have been reading these posts for the past two months waiting and waiting for a car of mine to sell so I could go out to the dealer and buy my Speedmaster with the money I got from the car. That day finally came. I picked up the bike on saturday, and have been staring at it every since. Riding too. I am relatively a novice on a bike, but my first couple rides were fun as hell. Gonna be terrorizing the suburb's and residentials for a while before I am ready to get out on the open road, but what I have done so far has got me hooked. Lots of great advice in here, look forward to posting more as an actual owner finally!!! So howdy to all.

Welcome. I know the feeling when you first get a speedmaster. Come to think of it, i still have that feeling ! Well, maybe not quite as strong but it's a bike thats not easy to get tierd of. Now that you've spent the initial car money on the purchase, get ready to sell another car for the mods and accessories. :-D

Anyway, congrats on a wise choise. :wink:
