  1. I'm trying to ride with others as much as possible but I don't know too many people that ride and live close. I do plan to try walking in on the MSF course even though they say "full" until august. Next class is April17th but i will be out of town that week. Mabe the next one after that ill try my luck at sliding into the class. Thanks for the feedback so far.
  2. Blue, I actually live in south lebanon right near the UDF where route 48 and 22 cross-and ride in the south lebanon/maineville/loveland area for now until I get more experience. Let me know if you want to ride, I'm always down. OMG just noticed you have a daytona 675! Awesome bike! That's what I want when I get more hours under my belt. RcTaylor we have to ride now! Ill be out all day tomorrow ( supposed to be 80 degrees ) send me a msg with your number and ill give you a call today
  3. Its rediculous. Most of my friends that ride have ridden for years and just expect me to just ride. Like somehow I'm supposed to pull riding knowledge out of thin air. I don't feel pressured to go out with them because I actually want to stay alive. Just because I ride a sport bike doesn't mean that I'm a racer or I automatically have sweet skills. Also I've noticed since I've started riding that in general, people in cars are A*&%#$S! And that noone I talk to has anything positive to say about riding. Everyone says the same things. " be careful" or " my friend had one and wrecked..."
  4. I will ( would ) as soon as possible but I tried to sign up too late. Classes near me are already book up until late August
  5. First let me say hello! (1) I am a new rider with no prior experience. I feel I'm doing well but I seem to be stuck. I have done my parking lot practice and have graduated to country roads and very low traffic roads. I don't really know what to do now. I don't feel I'm ready to ride everywhere yet but I need more experiences around traffic. But I'm too nervous to go. Any road near me is either country roads or very busy streets. Any tips? Or should I just put some big boy pants on and do it? I obviously feel safety is most important and I don't want to jump into traffic thinking I'm a badass because I'm not. I know I'm a newby tard but we all have to start somewhere. Sooo, if I feel I'm past country roads but not ready for busy traffic situations, is there anything advise? (2) Also I know everyone is different and picks things up differently but I'm wondering how long the average person takes to get decently comfortable to ride wherever they want? I'm in no rush and don't mind "paying my dues", just curious. Thanks *I've noticed that I see everyone riding but I never ever see anyone learning to ride. What gives
  6. Thanks for the welcomes No I bought the TT off a good friend of mine. I've known the bike for years and knew he took care of it. When he said he's thinking about selling it I had to jump on it. Seeing as he's such a good buddy I got if for a crazy steal. You wouldn't believe me if I told you. I know its hard to find TT parts but I couldn't pass it up. I've only seen 1 other one in person and although I'm new to riding, it seems nimble and I feel its a good bike for me.
