Hey all. I bought a 2007 M50 special edition and found this forum while searching for which seat to buy. (I went with a Saddlemen Explorer without the studs).
I was searching for the perfect bike to please me as well as the Mrs. I had an '07 Ninja 650R, put 6,300 on it before selling it for a need for money. I had a Vulcan 500 for ONE month before that one, but it was way too small for me, hence the upgrade. I'm 6'2" and mid 170's soaking wet, so it'll be good to get some feed back from those in my general size.
I like the M50 coz i wanted Alloy wheels; liquid cooled; fuel injection and the drive shaft and single rear shock are a nice touch. And i love the '07 special edition for the color and the details.
Saddlemen will ship 5-8-09 from Cruisercusomizer. Bought the bike from original owner who put 4,500 on it and the dealer he got it from and serviced it at is only 7 miles from my house, bonus.
Came with a small (verge of tiny) windshield. Carbon fiber looking detail around the gas cap area. Custom made bar risers (said couldnt find any, so had them made), small highway bars with fold out pegs. And he threw in an Alpinestar tank bag.
I think i'll learn a lot from this forum and hope to help out where i can. I'll have to work on getting pics up and getting my signature half way looking done.
Now my search for a sissybar and pad, again, for the Mrs.
