New guy checking in. I have a little ride time under my belt from a friend's bike last fall but have not taken my MSF course yet. Soon, very soon. I was just starting to look for a bike when a friend of mine contacted me. Looks like I'll be picking up a 2006 Ninja 636 from him in April. I want to ride my neighbors GS500 for a bit yet this spring, but I can't pass up the deal. New tires, Jardine exhaust, kawi green frame, pearl white plastics, frame sliders, and a hell of a price from my friend. Hope to meet up with some of you soon
