Default New Bike, new style, Getting uesd to "Helmet Hair" again

Well I drove away from the Suzuki Dealer on Friday July 1st on a Suzuki Boulevard M95. This is my first Cruiser. I had Sport Bikes up until I moved to Dallas then quit riding for awhile. (Traffic here is a pain) Well the itch came back so now the fun begins. Already got caught in the rain on Thursday and the bike was stable and sure-footed. Also learned you can't lean it like a sport bike unless you like draging the footpegs off. The wife told me to put on a real passenger seat (At least I won't have to stop by the store for groceries) After checking prices for accessories I decided I need to buy a CNC machine and make my own. And of course ther is the Helmet hair but at my age I'm just glad I have hair.
