very nice!! jealous! ... been eyein a cbr600 maybe gas prices will get me to get off my butt and learn to ride

If you don't already know how to ride, I do not recommend any sport bike with the letter "R" in its name. Get something old and used that you won't mind dropping. Trust me.

There are 2 kinds of riders. Those who have gone down, and those who will go down. Everybody meet's the pavement at least once. It doesn't matter how long you have been riding, or how experienced you are.

i dont mind droppin a bike it can be fixed and i never said i was looking at a brand new one id rather feeling comfortable with the stance and the bike itself than just get an old one i wont be afraid to drop i know im goin to go down at least once in its lifetime

I rolled the bead off of the back rim on my old rice rocket.  I was pushing it too hard through the corners in the canyon is the only thing I can figure happened, all I know for sure is it scared the crap out of me and I sold the bike a week later.
