Buy a sportster. 883's can be had for cheap.

Whenever you feel the need for some more power, the 1200 /1250 kits are $700 or so.

can't do it, my parents are gonna help me pay for it and they won't go with the 1100. I'm not really lookin for massive amounts of power and speed tho to be honest, just lookin for somethin to go out and cruise on

right on man I'm sure the 650 will still be fun for cruisin, have you checked used? Might be a good idea to see the money you can save on a low mileage used bike, or see how quick you will lose equity in a new 650.

I've been lookin for a 650 used but the only one's I've found are at used car lots that will qualify anyone for a loan so they are wantin close to 10k for a used bike that is worth at best 3k
