I'm beginning my quest of motorcycle shopping and am torn. It has boiled down to battle between the Versys and a Girly. I have owned a versys and really enjoyed my time with it, but,...I am really magnetized to the Girly.
Problem is, I have never ridden a Girly and all the one's that are for sale are a good hike away which makes it difficult for me to commit to a trip when I don't know if I'll like the bike or not. (Insert comments here! :D)
Sooo.....I'm curious if there are any very generous Girly owners over here in the Pennsylvania area who would be willing to let me have a quick test ride (I feel pretty uncomfortable asking this..)?
If it is any consolation, I can have cash in hand and you can lead the test ride on my Blackbird if you wish.
You can Pm me here or email me at
mikevgavin@yahoo.comThanks!

Have a look in the "for sale" area cheers Spud :wink:
Rochester Ny Close enough? could make it down to the border Ny/Pa but your still looking at 4-5 hours sorry.
Hey Spud thanks for the heads up! What a strange matter of timing :)

Thank you so much for extending an invitation to check it out. I may have to take you up on it some time! Actually I may have found a Girly on the other side of the state that I may be looking at soon. But if it falls through I can't turn down a nice ride to northern PA /southern NY :D
With a Blackbird and a Girly, you just need a 350cc Yam for the set!! :D
Gravity Tester I'm sending you a Pm here in a sec....
I've noticed your sig line before and got a chuckle out of it Bixxer Bob. To add to it, I was talking recently to a buddy about how I really wanted an old yamaha RD 2 smoker :)
I'm in the same boat, looking to move up from a KLR to a Girly but can't find one to even sit on around here (middle part of the state). If anyone can help please PM. Not opposed to a fly-n-ride purchase but not before I can at least check out the ergo's.

I happened to meet a very generous Girly owner (and many other bikes!) who let me test ride his Girly as he rode my blackbird. Needless to say, I'm now looking at a Girly tomorrow :D If I do purchase the bike, you're more than welcome to come over to Steeler county and give her a spin. I'll pm you if I purchase the bike tomorrow.
Well that would be epic. And I am a Steeler fan, so we will get along just fine. :wink:
Test ride accomplished and grin achieved. Sooo.....Got me a 03 Lucifer orange Tiger on Sunday! :D
ddavid if you want to take her out for a little spin let me know. We'll be able to work something out. Since it's preseason, even a "stiller" game day could potentially work.
