I agree completely. I've always felt drawn to motorbikes. Maybe it's because it looks like fun, maybe it's the community behind the bikes. For example, I got a book from the library a couple days ago, "How to Ride a Motorcycle A rider's guide to strategy, safety, and skill development, by Pat...

Holy....$555? I thought it was $74. I have the costs I need to work out calculated to about 5 - 7 thousand. I'm starting to save now. I already have enough to take my M1 which, according to the official Ontario site, is $74, but I don't have enough for anything else and it only lasts 90 days, so...

Lol. I mean, 4 until around 11. I guess. I'm still a kid, but my parents say 16 is in between childhood and adulthood, so I'm [almost] and adult

Wow. I appreciate the wisdom :D really. Biking is something I'm really looking forward to, but I have no problem waiting. While I wait, however, I'm doing all I can to prepare. Studying, watching videos on how this works (the video really helped by the way) and in free time, looking at gear and...

I mean, in a car, you're on the left side of the vehicle, which I find tricky to get used to. On a bike, well, it's two wheels, so you have to be in the middle of it, it'd look weird otherwise. That's what I meant

Yes. My drivers ed starts on the 27th. But when I get my G2 I'm going to go for my M1. Giving me lots of time to study, which is good. I wish I could do it sooner, but my parents aren't so keen about this idea (my dad actually is more accepting than my mom about it, which is weird) so, getting...

I passed the knowledge test. I'm a G1. I just got it last Wednesday

Yeah. I keep drifting towards the lines. I'm still working on it though. Thank you :)

Car. I still have my G1. When I get my g2 I'm going for my M1

That makes sense. I keep having problems staying in the middle of my lane though for some reason. I need to work on that

You will find I ask a lot of questions. A lot of them will be stupid, but I'm interested, so I have to know. Hence this stupid pointless question. In your personal opinions, which is easier, bike or car? Why do you think so? for me, I say bike. I don't know, I have a hard time with cars...

Guess so. Sorry lol. also, thank you guys for advice. Any good sites you could point me to for gear? Or actual stores?

Um. Bump?

I wasn't really sure where to put this, so if it gets moved, I understand. I was reading online (official site for Ontario) that I need an approved helmet to ride. Anybody know the requirements/brand of helmet that's approved? Links to good sites for cheap, but quality gear? Thanks in advance...

You're right. I think I'll do that :) Like I said, I will get my G2 first, (because right now, even asking to talk to our insurance agent will scare my parents to the point of not even letting me take my M1, which is still iffy) So. That'll be a good 8 months. -.- That's alright though. No rush

Alright, sounds good :) I might actually get the book though. I'm so interested in it, I wouldn't mind reading the whole thing XD (You can probably tell I have nothing to read). It'll become my summer beach read lololol. Yeah. I'm a boring person. Thanks for the help guys :)

No joke XD I love them. Not that cruisers are bad. I prefer sport bikes is all. But yeah, you're certainly right about minimizing the dangers, and my parents don't seem to understand what you just explained. I see where they're coming from. Though, what you just explained happens to everyone...

Oh God. Big sigh of relief. I feel like an idiot now lol. Thank you though. I need to prepare. I might as well go out and get that book. And download a test app also. The M1 is pretty simple though right? Mostly common sense, like the G1?

Thanks Roomie :) And those bikes are beautiful O.O I'm personally more of a fan of sports bikes, I guess I like the sleek look of them. (Which might also explain my favorite cars (Dodge Viper, Camaro, Agera R)) But that said, I really like those bikes. My dad had a Harley as his bike when he...

Wait a minute. You have to write your G1 again? O.O But I literally just did it first a week ago. I've been G1 for a week. What I was going to do, is get my G2, write my M1, do some courses, get my M2, wait a year, and get my full G during that year. But, by writing your G1 again, as a cause of...
