  1. Suuuck it Agreed^^ I learned to ride on a yamaha 600 and had no trouble at all, and I am pretty small and short. It also depends alot on who is teaching you. I got my permit back in February and my boyfriend got me on the 600 in a big parking lot, had me work on getting the feel of the clutch "friction zone" for a while before I took off. I just took the MSF course this weekend and it was WELL worth my time.....plus you get an insurance discount and your motorcycle endorsement when you pass. There were several women (and men) there that had never ridden before and they were riding like champs by the time we took our evaluation. Just make sure that when you get a bike you don't just get it because it's "cute"....if I did that I would be riding a brand new 1000rr right now... and that's probably not a good idea. Anyway when you are looking at a bike, sit on it and make sure you can get both feet flat on the ground (with your height that probably won't be a problem..must be NICE to be tall). Grab the handlebars and see what it's going to feel like in that position, get familiar with the switches and clutch/front brake levers. You can look at this page http://motorcycles.about.com/od/buyingamotorcycle/ss/how_to_inspect.htm for some more helpful hints, and take a KNOWLEDGEABLE MAN with you. I am saying man because the dealership/seller will more than likely try to screw you over even more if you go alone or with a girlfraannnd. Oh, and when you start riding, get ahold of me and we will cruise.

  9. Wow. I guess I'm lucky I left for work when I did, I didn't get a drop of rain
  10. Is she on here? I met her and I am so bad with names....I would really like to ride with her sometime, maybe we could hook up and it would make her more comfortable riding if it was with another girly. I was with the 2nd group the whole time and didn't get to hang out with her.
  11. By the way, those of you who missed out because you thought it would be an out of control race the whole way should have came. I am pretty new at riding and there were several people there going just my speed. Thanks to Udell and Elliot and the Aprilia guy for running sweep behind my slow ass. Oh, and there were delicious popsicles.
  12. Got a couple CRAPPY pics from Adam's house. It was good meeting you guys Cool looking honda
  13. I could definitely go, but a fucktard backed over my bike the other night in a driveway and riding without footpegs isn't really an option for me. I don't want to be a backpack either so I guess I got nuthin.....unless you can allow for horses. Lawl
