as was mentioned, climb on every bike on the market. the current crop of sport bikes are fuckall in the comfort department. especially if your over 5'8. there all fast, nobody i know can outride their bikes. the rider determines who wins. and ya i just got the new zx10, its insane. rolling 2nd gear wheelies. lightly clutch 3rd gear wheelies.
oh btw, u might want to check into insurance. it can be silly.
good luck
Progressive always has decent prices - as long as you don't have too much BS on your record and being over 25 helps too...

Easy - I live in DC, G-Town...where is your shop at?
