I just want her to wear gear. She's a terrible driver; very easily distracted. I have a hard time visualizing her on a bike, and in control.

Same thing with my wife. Just sold her bike tonight though. Kinda feel relieved.

First I would say is contrary to popular belief a Busa is easy enough to ride, Its long throw throttle (1/4 vs 1/5 turn) combined with a torqy engine make it very well mannered at low revs. (think 750 twin)The down sides for most new riders is weight. They are heavy at the stop. If she gets the Busa there are countless comfort and appereance mods available. (never mind all the performance stuff)
If she goes Monster she will be thrilled this is a far more practical machine just a bit more expensive to maintain. Either way I like your mom's tastes and if I were married I would at least like to buy her a coffee |
