Is a Hayabusa a good bikefor a 17 y/old beginner??

#1 Unread post by Howling Donkey »

:laughing: Just kidding folks. Actually I'm a 27 year old beginner who just purchased an old BMW. After catching the motorcycle bug about 10 months ago I started doing a lot of research to make sure I got a good start on things and I wanted to kick in here and thank everyone on this forum. All of the information has been a great help.


I hope your blood pressure didn't spike too bad when you saw the subject line. :laughing:

I was pleasantly surprised to find your post instead :D

Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

Bawwww. I was looking for another thread discussing the potential of the person being a troll and what should be done about said troll followed by the sarcastic 'yes' replies.

THANKS FOR DENYING ME MY ENTERTAINMENT!

Oh and welcome, concessions are on the right and the bathroom is down the hall and to the left, past the plant.
Have fun on the open /¦\
