first time brick owner
« on: June 24, 2017, 10:26:13 PM »
Hey all new to the brand and the bike.  Rode Yamaha and Hondas to this point.  What the brick lacks in power over my old sabre v65 it makes up for in comfort and ride so far.

Welcome to the site. :2thumbup:   Never rode one, but I always thought a Sabre V65 looked to be a fairly comfortable bike.  Tell us about your brick. :popcorm

Welcome!  If you can live without mega HP the K75 is a very likeable machine.

Hey all new to the brand and the bike.
Welcom, Adrian. Post a few photos of your bike and include its year in your profile so it will show up in every post because some components changed in certain years.
