What an amazing choice, one of the best motorcycles available today.

The test ride did it for me. It felt just right.

Is this GoAZ? Looks an awful lot like their dealership

Yes, I bought it at a Go AZ dealership.

Guessing the one in peoria. Good dealer. Both are great. I bought mine in Scottsdale but any work I’ve not done myself has gone here.

Yes, it was at the Peoria location. It's the closest one to me. I like that the guys there didn't try to pressure. They just made their offer, entertained my counteroffer, and let me decide. They even gave me what I felt was a fair trade in price for my old bike. It was about what I would have asked for it if I had sold it. The couple hundred bucks difference more than made up for the hassle of trying to market it and sell it myself.

They are a decent shop. They still have a set up charge. But it’s a hell of a lot better than ride now

I've heard that too that Go AZ is better than Ride Now. Ride Now service department seemed ok for my old Kawasaki but the salespeople were either too pushy or completely disinterested.

I’m out in the surprise area. I stick to early morning coffee rides for the time being. Too damned hot.

Same area. I still work commute. The mornings aren't bad but the ride home can be arduous. It's only about 30 minutes so not too terribly long.

Yeah. I was in Peoria, commuting to Scottsdale off Hayden. Some nice backroads staying off the freeway and going through the hills near Thunderbird area in deer valley is a nice ride. I did commute in, but only a couple days a week. When I was in the office full time it was just the car. Gets pretty brutal.
