Hi everyone
Well yes I'm new to the fourms but not to bikes. I own a 2006 an 650 and just love it. I work in a motorcycle dealership with multi brand motorcycles and I still deceided on the Burgman an 650 and just love it.
Its one of those bikes that seems to grow on you each time you ride it. I live in Alberta Canada where there are a lot of bike riders and its good to see that more and more people are making the choice to the an 650

Well thats just alittle about my bike and I and I just wanted to say Hi to all the AN 650 riders out there

Have a great day

John

Hey man. Tried out a 650 at demo days. Thought it was really cool. I liked the semi - auto shifting.

Thanks everyone for the great welcome, it sure is nice to meet new people on or off line that are interested in bikes

JDAlberta,

Yup, those 1/2# versions are nice, 15,000 miles and still going strong.

I am thinking of getting one with all the fixings (650 Exc.), in a year or so.

Hi Jim
I have the Burgman 650k6 and love it I have already added the rear seat back rest and a new windshield, a little higher and wider. I have checked into a trailer and a hitch for my unit. I have installed a two way radio on the UHF bands and thats all wired into my helmet with the transmit button wired into the pass switch. after I get it all ready for touring I want to install a am/fm radio as well and hook that up into the helmet as well LOL.
I just love seeing what else I can do to this unit to make it better for me and the misses to make traveling just a bit better

Have a great day Jim, Talk to you later

John
