Re: new rider

With your attitude go ahead and get a 1000cc sport bike or higher. I'd like to see how long you'd last.

lol. In all seriousness. I'd look for a cheap 250cc bike to start on, and then when you feel confident enough, and have learned the basics you can buy something bigger. TAKE A MSF COURSE!!!

People won't think you're a pussy if you ride a busa. But the busa must be chromed and stretched. Also it must have a furry seat. Without the furry seat you are a pussy.
