Default Soon to be new rider amongst us.

My son has gotten himself a 2008 Suzuki Boulivard M 50 gray/yellow.

Is in process of signing up for Motorcycle Safety course.

I tried to talk him into getting used for first bike.

But he is single and 27 with good paying job.

He did go in looking at the used bikes then saw the 08 gray /yellow bike, couldn't look past it.

Congrats on the new ride, nice choice.

I love the pictures, it's like posing with a new baby.

Ask him to join us at the hideaway, lots of ideas there.

I saw one of those on the street last week, nice. The black and yellow gives it a look like a bumble-bee on steroids. I like it. Congrats to your son, tell him to ride safe.

Great photos UB. Your son definitely looks to be the proud owner, as you and the Mrs look to be proud parents. Similar to you, my son, also a responsible adult, does not heed every word of advice this old man shares. Y'all enjoy his new ride and ride safe.
