You are a motogp fan. They corner and lean in hard, maybe the masters of cornering ... When you get that feeling of leaning over. The bike feels planted.... You hold your line. You feel as if the bike shouldn't be able to do this, but your skill and mastery over gravity makes it so...you get...

OP. You don't like corners! Don't like corners! One of the great things about motorcycles imo is that sense of accomplishment when you master something. I'm still trying to get rid of my chicken strips ... If i stuck to a 250 maybe i would be a better rider now. Don't be a 600 rider who...

Good point. Sent from my Arc using Tapatalk 2

Think Denmark vikings became christian... Christianity offered a way to gain and legitimize more power... once they all started becoming christian, the pagan and viking ways sort of died out... so then they became Norwegians, swedes, and danish ... evolving into mainstream European Christians...

Thanks guys. Definitely looking forward to some coffee/breakfast one of these days. Been looking around for some good baby carriers that attach to the pillion ... funny ... can't seem to find any. 7up: how many physiotherapists does it take to change a lightbulb. answer: one. They tell it...

awesome show. I must have been a viking in my past life.

checking in. I remember this thread ... maybe I'll get a chance to get out this summer - in between changing diapers - I doubt it ... we will see...

glad to hear OP is getting into the swing of things. Reiterate what some others have already said. Ride at your own pace. Easy to say but not to do. Discovering what your own personal "limits" are and riding within them really takes one to check their ego at the door and know thyself...

those are both great bikes. get all the gear. increase riding experience - take the course at least. Not respected and laughed at???? are you kidding me??? I think your friend is not giving you the best advice. If you give into vanity - you will hurt yourself.

welcome!

With all due respect - OpenGambit - you play into every single stereotype I have of a capital markets lawyer. Would be so interesting to hash out left leaning vs. right leaning politics with you. We've got to go for a ride someday - maybe the track and we can hash it out. I've got to see your...

This thread should be a sticky

Started riding at 30 maybe a quarter life crisis but always wanted one and now I could reasonably afford one. First it's a mysterious/cool thing but then it becomes something else - u love the freedom - you "grow" so much as a person and I believe, learn so much more of the world around you -...

We all go down that's normal - nows your chance to really get to know your bike take your fairings off and poke around - you'll learn a lot and maybe find out why there's a leak - figuring it out yourself is part of the challenge and the fun - just like when u first learned to ride.

Enjoy
