I just bought a 2009 Burgman 650 and will take delivery this afternoon.
I've owned several bikes in the past: 1971 Honda 750 K-1. Also a 1974 model.
A 1961 Triumph 650 Bonneville that I wish I still had.
A Kawasaki KZ 550.
A few others too
But.... I haven't ridden a bike in 25 years. The reason? I have a wife who WAS dead set against me having a motorcycle.
And I've never had an automatic.
So how did I overcome the wife problem? Easy. I surprised her with a Honda 150 scooter for her birthday. [email protected] How could it have been this easy?
She is so excited about learning how to ride it.
Her scooter is new. The Burgman is used. The price was about the same and I just can't ride a 150. My goal is to get her some experience and eventually move her up to the Burgman.
