After riding two up for about 4 years, I finally caught the bug last year and surprised my boyfriend by signing up for the beginner rider's course! I surprised myself by actually getting my license that weekend and then HE surprised ME with my new bike - a red 650! I have about 1500 miles on it (long cold Chicago winter) but have been riding a lot recently. Our first road trip is this September to the Southwest and I am really looking forward to it. This bike is perfect for me - perfect size, power, height, etc. I may want "more bike" down the road, but for now, this is my baby!!!

What a lovely first bike. That would be an upgrade bike for many of us. You're right that the 650 GS may be all you'll need. You'll find out on your road trip. Enjoy!!

Your bike is beautiful. I have a G650GS too! Mine is black. Your boyfriend is very generous for buying you one! I'm glad you are enjoying it. I absolutely love mine too. It is so easy to ride. The controls are simple and easy to reach. The seat is low enough, so I can flat foot mine and feel in control. I just love everything about it. It is my first bike, and it might be all the bike I will ever need. With the 650 cc displacement, it has plenty of power to keep up with traffic. Awesome. Enjoy the ride. I just passed my MSF July 11th. I've just been riding in my neighborhood. I only have 64 miles on my bike, but that will change soon. I hope you enjoy your trip to the Southwest in September!!!
