Hi everyone,

have been lurking the board a few days and i liked the atmosphere so decided to say hey.
I'm a new rider. My bike experience so far is 10 min on an R6 in my backyard but my bike should be flying in this weekend.

good luck!

and take it easy on your R6, that's not beginner friendly.

coming from you thats funny man.

I just got to ride the R6 for a few minutes its not my bike. My first bike is some no name 200cc kawa ninja wannabe which should be here this weekend. I was going to pick up a used bike but then i found this new one on ebay and decided to give it a try.

Thats why i got a lil 200cc bike. It will probably max out at around 75 which is more than i should be going the first year anyway. And when i test rode the R6 I could feel myself getting tempted to give it more throttle but i decided it was not my bike to drop so that stopped me.
