    Shell/Gas Station Rant

    I always fill up to the metal part and then slowly top it off with about half the metal piece under gas and the rest above. This usually ends up with the tank being full when its off the stand. How much you need to drown the piece would depend on the lean angle of your bike while on a kick stand.

    Soon to be rider! Any other petite ladies?

    that's what i thought too, also, find the bike more stable when it's at a triangle with the ground and my one foot rather than both feet down

    Soon to be rider! Any other petite ladies?

    don't worry about tiptoeing, if you need to park the bike, just get off and park it. if you feel really uncomfortable, then get lowering links on your first bike (dont lower it too much though). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vqdt4aw-gIw

    Looking for a starter bike!

    id suggest looking up a quote with your insurance company (or call around), as most of them go by cc's so it doesn't matter if you were to get a cruiser; if your age allows you to get a 500 cc cruiser without too much insurance then go for it. I am 23 with a G for 1 year and a clean record i am...
