Hi All,
Been lurking for a while, but thought I would officially post an intro. I just picked up a new overstock 2019 CBR650R a few weeks ago and absolutely love it. I will admit that this forum played a bit of hand at helping my decision as I was on the fence between a couple of bikes, but the build quality of the Honda and vast knowledge of this site helped edge it out over the MT-07, and SV650X. It also keeps the unity in my garage as both me and my GF drive Accords (mine in manual, but her's is newer), and I also have a 2019 Honda Rebel 500 so Honda's rule the roost. (4runner has been pushed to the side spot!)
I've been riding for quite a while now and my past bikes are pretty wide ranged including 996 Superhawk, GS500, FZ6R, R6S, CBR500R, Katana 600, and the Rebel 500 as well as various off-road bikes throughout the years. Still miss the 996 as the V-twin was spectacular, but looking forward to many miles on the new addition!
