Re: Hello from Staten Island, NY
Let the bike sit in the sun for an hour or so, take some WD-40 and a rag and remove that silly warning sticker on your tank. It's easier to do it now. If you wait a year or whatever, they tend to get baked on.

Thank you. Thats exactly what it feels like. I want to enjoy this, I wanted to ride when in my 20's and 30's and always shied away. I'm glad I finally did it, better late than never, .... as they say.

Re: Hello from Staten Island, NY
Lynda was a 56+ grandmother when she started riding her GZ. Also a complete newbie to riding. The GZ was great preparation for an upgrade 3 seasons later. Now at 56+++ she is preparing for a ride half way across Canada in Sept on her M-50. And I am not going with her. She made this trip before with the GZ and me along for company but this time it is a test of metal sort of thing. She has a proper feel and attitude with the bike which she works on improving/maintaining with every ride.

Re: Hello from Staten Island, NY
The M50 is a beautiful bike. I saw a few pics, but don't know much else about it. Its a 750 ? You said Lynda did that trip once already with the GZ ? She must be a "Iron Woman" thats a long hard trip for such a small bike.

The GZ did perform like a champ on the long ride with nary a thought of breakdown or reliablity issues. It does make a great little touring bike if you aren't in a hurry and stay off major highways with faster traffic. |
