1500 is a powerhouse of a bike. sure it has a bigger brother in the 1600 or v2k, but it will run hard all day every day. great choice

Congrats on your new scoot Hac. That 1500 is a great scoot! You're gonna love it!

Any luck with those scratches on your pipes? Are they on your new 1500?

Having a hard time holding down the speed, eh? Couple of trains of thought there...1) Hold it down and 2) Go wide out anyway. I'm of the wide out anyway school....

Welcome and enjoy....

Absolutely great choice...I bought a V2K this year and did not sell my 1500 because I still like it too much. They are very different bikes and I am not sure which one I like better yet!! 1500 is hands-down a great motorcycle.

Congrats!!

I just wanted everyone to see how it would be if the world and this forum were Smiley-less. You see, Smileys are serious business. They are a part of one's personna. They reflect our inner selves in a graphic way - our thoughts, emotions , intents , etc. So for those of you out there who don't care for Smileys, it is obviously due to your lack of understanding of their signifigance. Spok, your reaction to my lack of Smileys affirms that my little experiment was successful!!
