Another addition to the fleet - 2 wheel variety
Been thinking about it for a while...the bug really 'bit' me in the last couple of months. I finally bit the bullet and cut the deal on Friday. (My rationale - the sales tax is tax-deductable! - LOL).
Here's a pic. This isn't MINE - but almost exactly the same bike.
It's a 2007 Kawasaki Nomad 1600. It is a BLAST to ride.

Congrats!
I hope that your skills are in tune as your p-car. 2007 will mark the eighth year I've been teaching the MSF course, and I'm still learning myself! If you haven't ridden in a while, or you've never taken the course, go take one. The insurance discount you recieve will offset the cost... and it will greatly increase your enjoyment!
You'll have to ride over to Jennings GP and meet up with us when we come down to do "motorcycle DEs" (track days) down there... next one is first of March!

Congrats! I like it...
1600cc, big comfy seats, long strait Fla roads
Is their still no helmet law down there??? I was there a couple years back and it seemed like NO helmet law meant NObody wore helmets. A couple guys on sport-bikes had them but they were defenatly the minority.
And whach out those new tires can be slick!!

congrats,
I have a 03 636 ZX6R
I do have full gear and full face helmut. Including SIDI boots.
I havent gotten onto the track with it yet, nor have I taken a riding course. However years of dirt biking did help alot.
