It's got new exhaust which is pretty loud and sounds really great. Has Harley handle bars. Braided clutch and front break cables. Saddle bags. Smaller turn signals. 10k miles. Bike looks brand new. Does need a back tire though. I am going to remove the drivers back rest and put on a sissy bar.

Anyone know where i can get a good deal in a sissy bar?

Nice bike. I had a VLX 600 and it served me well. Ride confident but don't get crazy. And as everyone else says, a riders course is an excellent idea.

Good lookin' ride!
If it was mine, I'd leave the drivers backrest on. They are very comfortable!

Welcome, I took the course at GTCC and its a great starting point and also helps getting your endorsement. I'm currently booked on the Winston Salem bike safe nc course. Get used to it on roads you know and you'll be fine.
