New Rider - New Bike - Old Man

[Midlife51]

Never ridden before but recently decided now was the time. Went to a shop and found a 2009 GZ on the showroom floor. The size was right for someone with my lack of experience and I loved the style. So bought it and took it home without first telling my wife. She wasn't thrilled but is still talking to me anyway. Took the MSF safety course last weekend (which I highly recommend) and got offically licensed this week. I'm having a blast on this bike!

Since my bike came without any bells and whistles, I'm interested in what kinds of add ons are available and most popular. For example, possibly a windshield. Didn't think it would be necessary but now that I've ridden some I'm beginning to think it might be a good thing. And some sort of storage probably. Have an office job and have to carry a change of clothes with me when I ride to work. Using a backpack now but would like something else.

I'm having a blast on this bike and looking for any excuse I can to take a ride!
