another bike in the family

[the Ferret]

Not mine, although I wouldn't mind having it. My nephew Mike sold his somewhat problematic KTM 690 Duke and scooped up a great deal on a brand new left over Suzuki SFV 650 Gladius. Had to go to Indiana to pick it up. His brother rides the Honda NC 700X my wife and I borrowed when we went to Nevada last fall, and rode Ebbetts and Monitor passes in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. These 2 bikes are on my radar for when the ST 1300 gets too heavy for me and I decide to go to a lighter bike. Both seem like very nice bikes. Can't wait to test ride this one.
