Hello all

#1 Unread post by Zao »

I am new to this forum. Recently I purchased my first motorcycle. A 1987 yamaha fz 600. I took the msf class last year first time on bike ever. Did not pass. Been practicing since. plan to take msf again in june. Any advice or tips on bike or about motorcycle riding welcome. Also would just like to meet other motorcyclists.

Hi Zao,

Try to gather all material on riding, like educational books & perhaps DVd's....That's what I do when I take up something new, research!

Welcome aboard! Hopefully you're not letting the idea of retaking the class mess with your mind. Aside of what has already been said, my only advice would be to not worry, and just have fun getting to know your new bike. Take 'er easy! Let us know how it all goes for you. Best of luck!

Cheers,
Loonette
