    New Female Rider :) Markham area

    Hey Everyone

    I got my M1 on my Birthday in March because some meat heads at work said that Women cant ride motorcycles (so I had to prove them wrong) I took the RTI course in April and my instructors were AMAZING (they had female instructors and I had quite a few women taking the course as well)........I got an amazing deal on a Suzuki SV650s...and Im in love with the riding experience! Any advice any one wants to provide me is welcome

    Welcome aboard Good job taking the course. SVs are great bikes, youll love it. My advice is ride safe & spend as much time as you can on the bike!

    Welcome aboard! So who's riding the bike while you're sitting in the back? (and I'm just kiddin' here.. The first time I put my knee down was following a 5'-nothing girl who was riding a ZX10R 1-handed )
