Been lurking for while, thought I'd officially introduce myself...
Based in the Bay Area, CA - I'm a returning rider (after quite a few years). Been zipping around the city on a Vespa recently - but decided I wanted something with more punch that I can explore a little further on (while still being easy for cross-town commuting)
I've had a deposit down since May and finally got the call to drop by my BMW dealer today. UNBELIEVABLY, this exactly coincides with the day I leave town for a 2-week vacation with visiting family! - guess I'll be waiting just that little bit longer
I did get the chance to go swing a leg over their demo 310r - seems to fit me a little better than the Duke 390 I test rode. Fit and finish seemed more pleasing too. I have a Blue reserved but the Black looks way better in person than the pics I've seen - might change my mind.
Thanks to all the contributors to this site so far - been picking up lots of useful info!
Hope to see you guys on the road!
