Smile Just a Bike leap over the pond

Hey guys, just stopping in to make myself known around here. My name is Dave, im from Lisbon, Portugal and I'm new to this forum AND to the CBR world.
I started riding later than most in life, at the ripe age of 32, having started with a Yamaha YZF600R, and having just recently tasted the 929 rush.

Still getting adjusted to the diference in power, position and driving style, but loving every moment.

My pillion is hurting from the change though lol.

Welcome to the site, Dave! Yeah, the power is certainly nice... doesn't do much for the passenger, tho.

Dirty or not, that thing looks sharp! Congratulations.
Silver on black always looks good.
