What's up?

#1 Unread post by Goo »

Hey everyone, I'm new here and to bikes in general. I plan on getting one as soon as I can :D . I want to learn everything possible about them such as the engines, types, mods, etc. So any advice as to where I can find things with lots of info or just your personal input would be appreciated. Thanks

Warning :spam: ahead…. :roll2:


First of all..... :welcome:


Second, Have you checked out the Beginner's Guide? There are also stickies and the Learn To Ride A Motorcycle page which is now downloadable in PDF format (Created and maintained by Dragonhawk).


Third, I also recommend an MSF or other reputable safety course and reviewing your state’s (province’s/territory’s) DMV or DOT website for licensing information, guidelines and FAQ.


Fourth, Go to a variety of dealers and sit on all kinds of different motorcycles. Even if you don’t think you’d like the ride when you look at it. I was dead set on one riding style when I started and ended up buying a different type. You may surprise yourself as well.


Fifth, Good Luck, Have Fun and Stay Safe Out There! I hope you enjoy this site! :tmwsign:
