Just made a deal on a 2003 Concours with 5800 miles. It runs just fine but the handling/ weight and in-line four is gonna take some getting used to. I knew going in that its a poor mans sport tourer and not to expect it to handle like my Ss. Anyone have any experience with these bikes?
 
closest I can come to that was my '89 Suzuki 750 Kan 'o tuna...:D, weight will probably be the first thing to get used to and can take up to six months before you're really comfortable with her, learning the handling, getting the suspension set up properly for your weight, cornering characteristics...heavy/light, etc... riding position may affect how you handle the bike/how it feels beneath you...take it easy on her 'til you're comfortable
 
my dad just bought a 2012 concours and its an incredible bike for the money. i dont know how much they changed in 9 years but if i ever get a tour bike thats what it will be.
