Woo Hoo!

I only lost 3 points for going over the line on my second U-turn in the box.
I rode a 250 nighthawk for the whole thing. chose this bike as it is a UJM and the style of bike I'm leaning towards riding/buying. It fit me perfectly (I'm 5'6"). though i didn't have best score of the class (that fell to two others that aced it.) I still did quite well with a score of 3 (0 = best; 20 =fail)

I'm soo happy.

Next the DMV written test and I will be certifiable!

then it's on to the bike purchase????
Been pricing Nighthawks (650's), Kawasaki Zephyr's, suzuki GS500E's, Ninja EX500's, and ducati Monster 620's (the monsters are a bit pricey though)

so far the best price is a '83 Nighthawk 650 with 45K mi. for $800 hope to check it out this week.

Not many GS500E's around that is the bike I would prefer.

Good job!

I take my MSF at the end of the month.

Passed the written exam today so I have my learner's permit.

Only missed one question.

Congrats!
