Approx. 2 hours ago, I became the proud owner of a Suzuki C50 black.
The approx. 10 mile ride home in midday traffic was not bad at all.
I enjoyed the ride very much, and there were a few glances of admiration
on the street.
Im still grinning.
I'll try to put up some pics soon (hopefully later this afternoon).

Thanks.
I probably would wait till tomorrow. There is rain in the forecast, and
I dont want to test my newbie skills when its wet.
Maybe I'll get her out again after tomorrow morning's rush hour.
I'm about to move it into the garage, as the dark clouds are looming,
and I dont want the birds to sh!t on it (need bike cover).

Congratulations man. That is one nice ride you've got there. Be proud.

Congrats triniO!
So you calling in sick tomorrow? :mrgreen:

Actually, I was off today.
My cousin called my earlier this afternoon for me to look at her computer.
So I took the chance to ride the bike, as it didn't seem like the rain was going to fall.
I got to her house around 6pm, but she didn't get home as yet.
Soooo, I went and took a bit of a joy ride around the general Ft. Lauderdale area. It was a great ride, learning more & more about the bike.
I have a slight problem doing turns (especially right) from a stop.
Need to practise that.
I got back to my cousins about 7pm, and left around 10pm.
By now its dark, and cool, and the ride was sweet.
Looking forward for more...

Nice bike trini0! Good choice! Are you sure you like it? :mrgreen:

Now the hard part comes! Controlling yourself and going to work instead of going riding! :twisted:

I've been on two wheels for 33 years now. Had the current bike since April of 02. I'm still using excuses for going riding. Keep in mind I live in LA.

Some of my favorites:
Going for coffee (at Newcombs, 50 miles one way)
(at Big Bear, 130 miles one way)
Going for lunch (in Tucson, 530 miles one way)
(in Las Vegas, 300 miles one way)
(in Tahoe, 500 miles)
and those are just day rides!

PS, I have a very understanding wife! :mrgreen:

Im sure I like it. I spent quite a bit of time researching before deciding on this bike.
It was the best choice, and Im sticking by it.
As far as work & riding. My plan is to ride to work...

Nice bike! I would definitely pick a C50 as my choice for a cruiser.

Ride safe, ride often!
