Awesome welcome to the group, a year from now you will need to go to motorcycles anonymous to stop riding. LOL.

Re: Hi New bike owner from colorado
Oh boy oh boy oh boy, a brand new victim ..er member. Welcome and congrats. What did you buy ? Are you ready for words of advice ? Good cause here goes. Sign up for a rider training program. Your best friend can and will teach you his/her bad habits. Buy a copy of Proficient Motorcycling. Then read it cover to cover. Best life insurance you will ever invest in and cheap. Get proper riding gear and wear it every ride.
We do expect a pic eventually so put on your best smile. Login or Register to Remove Ads |

Re: Hi New bike owner from colorado
Welcome aboard! Now, the first thing you do is sign up for the MSF Basic Rider Course. It will teach you what you need to know to get started - safely. Riding is an addiction. lol

Re: Hi New bike owner from colorado
Welcome aboard. I agree with the rest of the crew, do some form of recognized training, it will make a difference. And All the gear, all the time is not just a saying, its a religion.
Think we're over cautious and taking it too far?[attachment=0:14renyil]brittanymorrow.jpg[/attachment:14renyil] or you can google brittany morrow. Beyond that, keep it upright and take your time, and the bike will take care of you.

Re: Hi New bike owner from colorado
Welcome! I took a recognized course last summer and highly recommend it. Better to drop their bikes than your right? Safe Riding.
