Ridley test ride
A couple weeks ago my neighbor and I went to Sarasota, Fl and test rode a Ridley. Sticker price $19,000. It looks and sounds like a chopper and makes you want to run out and get some tatoos and some eye candy for the back seat. My neighbor, Don just sold his Harley soft tail and wanted to replace it with an automatic. He rode the Ridley and priced out buying a new one just the way he wanted it and it came to $20,000 out the door. The bike looks and sounds good and I am sure we will see other manufactures coming out with the same configiration. When it came to performance the Burgman 650 did everything better. speed, ride, comfort.
When we got home Don took my Burgman out and rode for a while and then came home and ordered a new 2005 Burgman 650. The dealer says its on the boat and should be here sometime in February.
