Hello all!
I've been riding off and on (mostly off) for about 20 years. I was wanting to get into touring and so, I was originally debating between the Trophy and the Concours, but ended up with the Trophy. A recent wrist injury makes the bike way too heavy (720+ lbs) now.
So, I started looking for something below the Concours/Trophy level.
I am a huge fan of the Ninja and had purchased a Ninja 650 for in-town riding when I would use the Trophy for my long-distance rides. So, the 650 naturally led me to the Ninja 1000 as the alternative.
I have a line on a 2013 White Ninja 1000, but I am not sure if I will get that, or one of the 2014 models. It sounded like the 2013 might have been a demo bike, so it may have quite a few miles on it and, while the price is roughly $4k less, it may still be a bit overpriced, depending on condition.
Anyway, I'll be lurking here for a while... Probably ask a few questions here and there.
See you 'round!
