New Motorcycle
And my journal title still works! Yay!
As Ameena had said in an earlier post we were thinking about getting a new motorcycle. Well, we purchased a nice little 2005 Honda Shadow Aero, or the VT750C as it is otherwise known.
After riding it back from Georgetown (north of Austin) and being thrilled with the feeling of cruising on the highway I am looking forward to taking it out on some hill country spins. Just got my insurance for it and am waiting to receive the card so that I can get the title officially transferred to my name.
A whole lot of firsts with this, first real vehicle, first personal insurance, first 'real' motorcycle (the one I was riding was real, it just had no power). I've got to say, the previous owner slapped some aftermarket Cobra pipes on it (which I wasn't even aware of until I got there to pick it up) and the bike is LOUD. It rumbles like crazy when it starts up and I feel like I need some earplugs or something at higher speeds because between the wind and the engine noise my ears were ringing when I stopped to stretch and get something to drink.
