Hi yall, a motorcycle is one of those things I’ve always wanted since I was young , as I grew up dirt biking but never got a motorcycle as I was more of a car guy growing up and couldn’t afford both . Also I didn’t know adventure bikes were even a thing back then.

As of right now I have no working vehicle and my car would cost .. well a lot more than the cost of a used v Strom to fix . And the used car market is pretty bad right now so I don’t want another car . And since money is tight I do need to be able to finance it .

I’m a disabled veteran and can’t work currently . I do have some money from the va but no 100% disability or anything so money is tight .

Since I’m not working I don’t particularly have to be anywhere most the time , but I do still need a vehicle to go to the store and appointments that are over an hour away . Also it’d be nice to just have freedom and get out more again for some adventures instead of being at home all day .

My biggest things are I need something reliable , comfortable and good in all seasons as I live in nh . I don’t plan on riding in any storms or anything but I want something that won’t leave me stranded if the crazy New England weather changes at random .

Im 6’1 and about 200 lbs , so I don’t think the bike will be too big for me . But what has yalls experience been like with the v Strom ? Especially for those of you in northern states or countries with winters ?

I’m pretty ignorant when it comes to motorcycles and don’t know the most about them . But the v Strom seems like it’d probably be the best fit for what I’m looking . What are your thoughts ?

Right now I’m looking at a 2016 v Strom abs with about 8-9k miles for $3,999
