Hello all, been lurking here for a while. Finally decided to post. Great site!!! Seems like a good bunch here.
Anyway......my current ride is an 05 Suzuki S40 and I'm wanting a larger bike. I've ridden a couple of larger ones that my friends have, a Yammi Roadstar, and a Nomad. I liked them both, although the Nomad did seem a little heavy, huge difference from a 360lb Suzi!! But I could probably get used to it. I've been riding on and off for 15yrs and my first bike was a Suzuki GS550L. The S40 is my second.
My local dealer has priced me a 900LT for $8311 out the door. They also have (last time I checked) an 06 1500 classic leftover. Still new, only accessory is a light bar. They priced this one to me for $8560 out the door.
My question is, which one? Most of my riding is around town back and forth to work, but I do hit the highway occasionally and would love to take some 2 or 3 day rides, or longer. Little Suzi is not comfortable enough for me to do that.
I like the extras the LT comes with, but the 1500 is a lot more bike! But without all the extras!
What do you guys and girls think?
