Lol Ive had my Gsxr 750 for a while and decided it was time for a change. I enjoy going on riding trips and want to do some longer ones this summer.
After riding the gsxr to calgary and back last year, I found a sport bike isnt really the type of bike a 250lbs guy should go on long trips with, let alone ride in general lol.
Sold my pretty bike and bought an ugly one.

Went from this:

To this:

So far I liked the ride home, very comfortable, and sufficient power. Heated grips ftw
Gonna be a good summer!

Welcome to the club. Our bikes are uglier, but our riders are happier. :thumbup:

Welcome to the forum Phildo. Looks of the Strom kinda grew on me. That GSXR was sweet. :thumbup:

That 750 is a nice bike but I bet you'll enjoy the Wee more.

sweet 750. I bet that hurt seeing that go.

I like the V in white though.

I find the V-Strom gets prettier and prettier the longer I am around it. Maybe it is personality winning out over cosmetics? You think?

And then again, my other bike is a Honda Pacific Coast. It is considered by many to be one of the ugliest bikes ever made. I think it also has lots of personality.

Maybe, just maybe, I like ugly bikes?
