A tall tourer like the FJR or Concourse would fit you well but may not fit the first timer criteria as those are big displacement motorcycles.

Ah, ok. You said above that the cruiser might be considered. The C50 is a cruiser thus the recommendation.

My recommendation is a Suzuki Boulevard C50.
New(ish) rider. I just took the MSF course late last fall. Bought an ‘08 C50T from a coworker for $3,000. Only had 11.,000 miles, Mustang seat and V&H pipes.
I shopped around and had a Honda Shadow ACE 750 and Vulcan 900 on my short list. Went with the C50 because I knew its…

Some great advice.

Is this were I say “fuck you” for having Oakland, Philly AND that perennial bowl of vomit and piss New Orleans in the top ten over Atlanta? Sure, it’s mostly interstates and sprawl but that doesn’t stop LA from being “great” (and I’m from LA).

I’ve been wondering why HFS hasn’t taken my first payment. Made the payment via their website and the money is still in my account. But that’s better than being double debited.

This makes Super Replica look more like the shitbags that they are. Some jackass does a somewhat respectable job of faking the funk on a Bugatti and those turds can’t muster up a Fiero-based Ferrari kit (though I know they probably never intended to but work with me here).

OR
Hows about a seemingly clean first-gen for $3000?

I’m contemplating buying this or replacing my upstairs A/C system at home. Wondering if I could live through an Atlanta summer but drive a rare unmolested 80s-era Honda.
Decisions, decisions.

Silly question but it’s killing me: how is Giulia pronounced? Is it pronounced like “julia”.

The freak-out, I’m OK with. Had this been my car I’d be cussing up a storm. But the girlie b!tch shriek was uncalled for. I mean,”dude” come on!

Came here for the “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” reference. Leaving happy.

It’s in Tampa. I’m a 7 hour drive away. Sweet!
(looks at bank account)
Welp! Nevermind on that.

That is a most excellent price and the mileage ain’t too bad either.

“There is no right way to enjoy riding.”
This needs to be on a T-shirt, bumper sticker and meme.

I’m looking at getting into riding. I learned on my room mate’s ‘84 Interceptor 500 back in the early 90s. Haven’t ridden consistently since then. Taking an MSF course next week. And hopefully will be buying a Suzuki C50…

Let me guess: salty film photographer that huffed too much dark room chemical, spent what amounts to the GDP of a small African country on film, emulsifier and bodies in 1970s dollars/pounds and is pretty shitty about the great unwashed being able to turn a picture with a camera that has more computing power than…

If your T3 is anything like the D3XXX or D5XXX line (I’m a Nikon guy) there’s only one control wheel that reqiures you to simultaniously hold a button and and spin the control wheel to change the aperture while in Manual mode. So the short answer to your question is no.

OR you can find a dealership that is ignorant to what a 500E really is like the intrepid Doug DeMuro:

Aye! Forgive the dyslexic mistake.

Arturo Burgna, hollow be thy name in Jalopnikland forevermore!

My first car was an '88 Civic that I miss. Can't find one now that isn't ragged out.
Had a '92 240SX coupe that I regret selling to my brother who in turn let my younger brother total out.
I feel your pain.
