I did.. I sat on heaps, fondled a few and come home with the vin number to a suzuki gladius. I butt tested a lot, and as soon as I sat on the gladius I was like oooooooooh..... 1% financing was the clincher. I was not as impressed with the vulcan 500 up close as I hoped to be. The throttle on the SFV650 is nice and smooth rather than jerky and abrupt, which is nice, I'll be spending this fall doing a nice slow breakin around my sleepy town since I'm told I need to do 500 miles below X rpm's.

Dealer told me to ignore that tho, and just ride around the block a few times, get it all hot and then let it cool down so everything seats in, and to do that a few times, and get a good oil change after 400 or so miles to flush any junk out of the engine from the gears meshing etc,.
