A good read, had to check it out as an 08 has surfaced here at a very attractive price.

Hmmm... I commute daily usually April to December...... give or take... depening on the weather that year..
Wet corners... usually drop 10-40% depending on conditions, amount of water on the road, visibility (fog or heavy rain) ... usually a bit more cautious on the near freezing mornings...
Another in Dartmouth here... no FZ as of yert, still on the SV/FZ fence for my next bike..
I am in the Yammi camp at the moment though :)

Quick question....
Which course did he take the one from NSSC (our MSF) or the other guys from Lunenburg that were offering courses (saw their ad on Kijiji al lot over the last few months) ?
Heh, a lot of the old Yammi's were notoriously cold blooded, but mainly because they are set up lean from the factory, a bit of carb tuning, rich up the mixture, and that could be easily cured..
FJ's/Seca II's also a needle shim kit helped that issue a lot as well
$300.... I'm gonna cry now... love the Seca II styling.... all the used ones here are way overpriced..... might as well go newer than pay that much.

She's a work in progress, lost the Shoie fairing and a front turn signal in a wind storm.

Thanks, will definately post up pics once I pick something up.
But that is a ways of, unfortunately need to get a few things before it's new bike time.
I started on a scoot, and oddly went ATGATT(thank you newenough.com :) ) , but as you said, most don't.
I think many buy into the lifestyle... like the Harley guys.... more about image than protection.
