I have my Verge TS Pro test ride tomorrow morning. I’ll report in with that experience.

I’ll ride my GS to the Verge dealer. It’ll be my first time riding the GS since returning from the Philippines. I admit that I’m a little intimidated by the GS’s height after spending a month on the little Honda NX500.

And, a friend of my brother’s is borrowing my Zero DSRX. I’ll have to collect it and put it up for sale.

Think Nike: Just Do It. Just go!
