So new I'm still shiny...Denver
Hi there!
Been away from street bikes for a while, but am shopping again. Used to have a '91 Nighthawk 450 back when I lived in NH. All I have right now is a dirtbike, but I'm selling that to fund the streetbike. Even though I had my cycle endorsement back in NH, the wonderful state of Virginia didn't transfer it when I moved there, so my Colorado license doesn't have it either. No worries, I will probably learn something from the MSF course I'm taking next weekend.
Looking for something older (cheap) to get me through this year, then I'll probably upgrade after that. 've learned a lot from working on my trucks, so the thought of working on a bike doesn't bother me much...something new to learn! I'll have a lot of questions! Looks like a nice group of folks here.
Thx!
Chris

MSF courses are really important. even though you've riden before you will find find some better habits to get into almost from the get go.
and those Denver drivers can be crazy, especially in those rain showers i seem to recall kept happening right at 5pm for about 5 mins almost every day
