Well did you get it bolted on yet? Should be warm enough today to go for a ride.

I would say that is more than twice the bike you had. I think you did well.
I wonder what happened to the fender/ |

I don't think you will be dissappointed with the honda.
Feel free to keep us posted in the new "other stuff" forum. Looks like you did okay with the lifan trade in. Allen
