I'm impressed

[Motorcycle Mike]

I've been riding a Honda VTX 1300 for the last 5 years and a Honda Magna before that.

Been thinking about one of these rolling lounge chairs for awhile now and finally broke down and bought an 09 RSV on the 11th of this month.

Well, Ma nature decided to give north Ga. a 500 year flood 2 days later and it's been sitting in the garage every since. The skys cleared and we had a chance to christen her Thursday and Friday. Took off for western NC to find out what this recliner could do.

Holy sport bike Bat Man! I had no idea a full dresser (other than a wing) would be so nimble. I think I'm in love with 3rd gear. What a wounderfull gear. pulling strong from around 30mph up to around 70mph. HOLY.................

Of coarse I'm not saying anything Y'all dont know but DAYUM. I think I'm gona like this bike.

Glad to hear you like her. Now get out there and enjoy more rides. Oh we're gonna need some pics too.

Yep, You just discovered Yamaha's biggest secret.......

Actually, 3rd gear pulls REAL strong from 70 up 'till 96 when the rev limiter finally kicks in at 6,500 RPM. Quit riding that thing like a twin and give it some juice - you will really be impressed!

Take 2nd to about 45 or so before you jump to 3rd and watch the fun begin. That is if its broke in already. If you can't beat them in 3rd your probably not going to.

Ditto to the above posts. winding it up and around is just toooo much fun. those darn speed limits just provide such a downer. you get to 100 so easily and then remember you're in a 65 mph zone. then look around for flashin lights.
