Get the green one.

None of them should have to sleep out beneath the stars every night.

Contrary to popular belief, I am not a sheep. I just ride a similar bike. There are too many ninjas in the group. I think I'd rather go with the naked bike cuz it's different. Plus, I like sitting upright more.

The main thing is, I want something with a bit more cornering clearance than what I have now. Oh, gotta switch the shiny pegs to the rear before this weekend. Monday is my class! Look out world!

I wasn't being derogatory. I meant it. Get the ER-6n in green. The green is awesome. But then, maybe the ER-6n isn't available in green like the Versys is.

Anyway, baa baa black sheep...

Hi,

Do I come off that sensitive? The Versys' metallic green is way cool, and it's different from the solid green. I just wouldn't want to like, blend in with DB's baby ninja.

Guess it's a good thing I like the "Candy Plasma Blue" cuz that's the only color it comes in this year for the US. Sort of like a Model T. You can have any color you want as long as its blue. Now I have been looking at some other bikes as well. The Moto Guzzi Classic is neat. I love retro bikes and not having to deal with the old tech. is nice.

LOL. I don't know. You said "contrary to popular belief, I am not a sheep." in response to my post, which coudl have been taken wrong as well. Who cares.

Anyway, let me help. I love to shop. What about a Triumph in some flavor?
Also, there's an older style Buell in the second hand store behind Chevron on Diamond Lake Blvd.

Oh shopping is my life! Someone once made the mistake of asking for my assistance in locating a newer car... They finally told me "enough already!" I like the bonnies, but there are enough of the older ones around that I get sidetracked about electronic ignition vs kick start, points, rotors and condensors... The newer Triumphs, the speed triple is a nice comfy one for me. Plus several of the BMW's both engine types. Ducati makes a classic too, but it's a bit tall for me. Then I did sit on a V-strom and liked it. Lowering links would need to be done. I guess the Versys can be lowered too. Oh too many choices and never enough money.
