brand new and psyched...

#1 Unread post by stranger1147 »

hey, im from upstate NY and am pretty much brand new to the motorcycle world. Ive always thought owning a bike would be "cool" but it wasnt until recently that i seriously decided to get one and learn everything i could in the process.

ive seen/read/heard how fun motorcycles are and, being a college dude im pretty psyched about getting one myself.

c ya on the road soon...

Welcome,

Good move to consider getting one just for the Winter.

stranger,

welcome.

Actually I always found buying a bike chepaer now then in the apring. Hope you consider taking whatever safety course first and read up on the different aspects of riding a motorcycle. You'd be surprised how much wear and tear it will save. On you and yur machine.

Good luck.

yea i definetely will take that. ive read how important it is and of the problems not taking it can cause.

ive still got a ton to learn but the subject of motorcycles is so darn interesting that its crazy fun (at least for me) to just sit down and read about it.
