that's the best plan. just make sure there's no fine print for penalties on overpayments or any other 'gotchas' like that.

I did the same as you with our "family car" and I just sold my Miata so that's a 60 month in 2 years. Not sure if that soon is gonna hurt me though.

USAA/Progressive wanted $1200.

seeing everyone out riding today finally got me off my ass and started on my re-jet. haven't done much, but the gas tank is off so it looks like i've done something. gotta decide pretty quick if i'm going to do an exhaust and filter so I can put in the right jets.

^there was a ride report on ADV of a guy on his Ninja 650 I've been searching for to send to u and I still can't find it. Great pics and speaks volumes on the bikes versatility. I'll send it when I can find it, it's one of my fave RR's.
