Good luck with the bike

Have fun with the bike... good to hear that youre taking the safety class. Its a very good class. Ive been riding for acouple years and have taken all the riding classes I can find... they only help. Id post a picture of my bike ( 2001 triumph sprint rs) but i havent figure out how to post a picture yet.

Good luck !

Patrick

aren't you required to take a saftey class in order to get a motorcycle endorsement? or just the riding class? how hard is that to pass anyways?

It's pretty easy to pass.. they basically teach you how to ride a bike, even if you have past experience. A lot of times, motorcycle dealers will reimburse the price of the safety course if you bought the bike from them.

haha im kinda broke to afford track time

between insurance with the 4runner and buying this bike and paying for hte course and insurance on that


im kinda broke...but being 17 im proud to say i own a truck and a motorcycle

and for a gixxer...i LOVE the R6...i think its the sickest looking bike out there....after a year or two ill think about picking up a used one..

the problem is im so small im going to have to have the seat modded and probably lower the bike so i can have two feet on the ground....heh
