I know this is for info and stuff but I had to share.

My friend came by about 2 hrs ago. She rides a Katana 600. My CB400T Hawk was fueled and ready. Where do we go? I said let's just start out around here. She says "Ok". 5 mins later we stop at an intersection I says, "You had to go to town (1/2 hr ride one way)....let's go"

So my first ride was highway, construction zones, traffic, city driving, lane changing, red lights, parking lots... the whole thing....and it was a bit windy!

She says...."You done real good!"

I now realise what everyone is talking about....what a feeling!

Can I go again????!!!!!!

Congrats on the ride. If you're new to biking take some time and do drills and such in the parking lot so you'll survive out there, but welcome to the biking world nonetheless!

Cool man :)

How do you like your CB400T? Is it like this?

Will it make it up to highway speed 70mph?

Thanks!
