Bike for my wife - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

Uechi Kid · 03-04-2006, 02:03 PM

Well we were set on buying a new M50 for my wife when I found out a friend of mine was selling his girl friends bike. He picked up a 01 Nomad and is giving her his 00 Vulcan classic 1500. So it looks like we’re going to get a 04 Yamaha VStar 650. It’s in perfect shape and only 4200 miles

. The down side is we have to go to Redding to pick it up. A little over two hundred mile and it’s going to rain for the next week or so. I guess we’ll be trailering it home.

Nice bike Uechi Kid. She looks clean and well taken cared of. I like the 2 tone scheme. Has a few extras as well I see. What does your wife think of the bike?
Saving some $$$ is nice too. All the best to you both. Enjoy riding together and keep safe out there.

That is one of the bikes I was looking at buying (not that exact one...

), when I saw (and fell in love with) my M50!

It's a really nice bike!

Bike for my wife. Good trade. <rimshot>

She’s a pretty bike; my buddy has a 05 and absolutely loves it. Looks like you’re ahead of the game with the accessories (Highway bars, rear seat bra, windshield, exhaust and Handle Bar Bag).
