2019 Kawasaki Vulcan S ABS CafeI've wanted to ride ever since I was a kid; my dad rides and I've always wanted to ride with him, but never made enough money to afford a bike. Gladly, I now have a job that I love and pays well! (...enough)$8099 MSRP; after taxes & fees: $7,576 out the door. He knocked $1000 off MSRP for a brand new 2019.Took my MSF course this past weekend, got my license the next day, and called around for two days before I found this price. The ten year old in me has been screaming like it's Christmas morning non-stop.Safety is my #1 priority right now so I got the brightest color they had for this model. My lid: A brand new Shoei RF-SR. It fits pretty snug (but not uncomfortably so) and is good on wind noise/ventilation. I have a Lightmode kit coming in the mail to significantly boost the nighttime visibility of the helmet.Got a nice Joe Rocket mesh jacket with armor padding & a liner used for only $125. I'm still hunting for some good protective boots and gloves, but avoiding all-black gear for visibility; for some reason, 90% of gloves/boots are solid black. Guess the folks who make them never sit in the sun... I'm open to reasonably priced suggestions!Thanks for reading. Ride safe. via /r/motorcycles https://www.reddit.com/r/motorcycles/comments/chwyw7/my_first_bike_got_it_today_for_an_absolute_steal/?utm_source=ifttt
