AND I CAN'T STOP YELLING!!!....... SEE?!
Of course I cannot open it up due to the break in period but I put 61 miles on it and I can feel it saying to me "stop being a chump, chump".
Here are some pics from iPhone.

I'd Love to own a bike, but after all the advice i got from the experienced motor bikers around here, I always hesitate to get one. Specially when I keep hearing " No matter how good of a driver you are, you will ALWAYS get hit by a moron".
All bike drivers on this forum and a few bike drivers that I know got hit at least once by a car. Even when at stop light, someone hits you by mistake.
Nevertheless, I wish i could own one

I crashed on my custom hybrid bicycle wo a helmet about 7 years ago, going about 25mph, so I've got paranoia of even jet skis now (had a severe concussion, half my face was scraped off, buncha scrapes, bumps and bruises all over - it was pretty bad, I guess). But dang, bro, that's a sweet friggin bike!![Twoup](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/twoup.gif)
