Well, I think I finally hit my mid-life crisis. Went out and bought my Suzuki DL650 V-Strom last night. First bike I've ever owned, and now I can't ride it until my foot heals. I broke it after I got the bike back to the base, so I can't put enough weight on it to hold the bike steady at stops. Go figure. My luck never has been any good with stuff like this.
I actually had my friend ride it from the dealership since I didn't want my first ride to be on a busy highway, so the only time I've been on it was getting it from his truck into his garage.
