    Another newbie!

    Hi there,

    I'm a newbie to the board, a long time passenger and a brand new M1 licensed rider. I just bought my first bike and am signed up to do the course in May. Like a lot of newbies, I intend to leave my bike in the garage until I do the course but.... well I'm gonna try, but I can't guarantee anything! OMG I couldn't be more excited to be sitting in the driver's seat finally!!

    Added a pic! Thanks for the welcome everyone!

    And for the record, I don't keep it in the garage all the time... sometimes I take it out, fire it up, throw it in gear, let the clutch out till it starts to roll and then pull it in again real quick! I also kiss it good night before I lock it up again lol! soon enough...

    Curious, Katana 650 or 750? A buddy of mine had a 750 and said it was (still is I guess) a great beginner bike... I might be getting my hands on one soon.

    Oh, and welcome to the site.
