Yeah getting her to ride would be great she's pretty leery of bikes granted that's not a bad mentality when starting. This will be my first street bike but i went through a few dirtbikes when i was younger. I haven't rode anything for about 5 years so Iam looking to find a comfy well mannered starting point.

Where can you post pics?
Anywhere you want. Here is good. Other thread is good too. Have you seen the F3 picture thread? Or the fun challenges thread (see my sig for link)?

Use photobucket. Paste the IMG code on your post. That way it wont be an attachment.

Looks pretty clean! That would be a nice bike to learn on. Maybe you can get it cheaper. $2500 is a little high....IMO. Cash talks.
