I heard that, however, I don't want something huge or too expensive, and i'm too old for anything "sporty".

My riding will be "leisurely" at best.

I've been riding a 500 since 2011, they're slow*, but good on gas.

*slow in this context means around as fast as a stock mustang gt.

This seems perfect to me, I'm not trying to have the loudest, baddest, most chromed out bike.

This is my gear

http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/revit-sand-2-pants

Yes. It is expensive, but it really is worth it. I love mine. I'd buy them again in a heartbeat.

Vent tons of air with all the vents open, over 90f I throw in the gel cooling vest.

Very warm in the winter as well with the rain & winter liners in.

I can wear mine from -10 all the way up to 110.

Don't listen to this guy. He's fat. Everything under 1000cc is slow for him.

This is why you don't ride like a squid around blind corners.

Fucking moron.
