Hello all,

I live in Beamsville, Ontario and just recently bought an 07 Black sd with a full Akro exhaust and a few other goodies. I don't have the bike quite yet. Going to pick it up in just over a week depending on cooperative winter weather.

My first bike was a 750 Honda Nighthawk. Next came a ZX1100. I thought that was an awesome bike. It was sold during school and later came a 'filler' gpz 900. That's the bike I've been riding for the past three years. All the while I've been saving up for a ZX14. I was so sure that I was going to buy the zed. As it turns out I had a chance to ride a smaller bike and I had a blast. I began to think more about insurance costs, potential tickets, and what truly makes a ride fun and I turned towards the naked bikes.

I was planning to get a Tuono but I didn't see any at the Toronto Motorcycle show. I did however get a chance to sit on a Superduke and I loved it. I'm 6'5" and I was quite comfortable on it. I just happended to see one for what I thought it was a good deal and just went for it,

Anyway, I'm very ecited to pick up the bike and see what I can learn from thie forum over the the long winter months.

Welcome m8, good choice. I've just sold my Zed as it had ban and do not pass go...go straight to jail, written all over it. You won't regret the SD, it's a tidy bit of kit.
