While I don't exactly enjoy drywalling, wallpapering is more of a pain to me. When my kids were small, they learned most of their early bad words watching me try to wallpaper the bathroom.

If you're riding anywhere near a wooded area, there are very likely to be deer. Especially around sunrise and sunset.

Thanks to you all. Good advice.

Thanks. I'm a causious person, and I think that I'd like to start small and I can always upgrade in a couple years.

Thanks for the quick replies and the welcome messages. Looks like this will be an informative forum.

Hi,

I'm just got my Ohio DMV motorcycle manual and will soon test for the temporary permit. I would welcome some opinions on a couple of things.

- Should I go ahead and take the Basic Riding Course, having never operated a motorcycle, as Ohio seems to suggest, or would it be better to ride a little bit in order to have a basic skill level shifting gears and braking properly, before taking the course?

- I've read many places that a 250cc bike is a good beginner bike. I have an opportunity to buy a Honda Shadow 750 at a good price, but I'm concerned that this might be too much bike for a beginner. I'm only 5'7" and 170 lbs.

Any thoughts would be welcome.
