Take it easy, read a lot, and if you haven't , take a course. Remember you have nothing to prove.You guys seriously have no idea how stoked I am about this bike
Enjoy the bike
sorry for intruding in on the girls forum...You guys seriously have no idea how stoked I am about this bike
but, you're in SD! You have a couple of really cool guys out there that can take you under their wing and help you out!
and +1 to what Stephenfz6r said.... just remember, riding's about enjoying yourself, learning to ride at your pace and you have nothing to prove to anyone else. You ride on two wheels, that's all that matters!
oh, and :welcome:

Trust me, I don't plan on hitting triple digits an doing wheelies until at least my second week :justkidding:take it slow...
Seriously though, my plan is to use surface streets and drive like a grandma until I'm comfortable enough to go at least 70 mph on the freeways. SD drivers can be crazy so I'm going to need to keep up whenever I feel ready.

My advice: wear your gear. All of it. All the time.
That way you don't have to worry about what happens to your skin when you wipe out (fall down) and you'll be able to focus and concentrate more on riding then what happens if you crash.
Trust me, everything thing you DON'T have to think about while riding makes your ride that much more enjoyable.
I've logged 22,000 miles in 18 months (with time out for winter in Chicago), and loved all of them. Okay, maybe not quite every single one of them -- days and days in the rain get old fast -- but I'm thankful I wear my gear because of the few minor mishaps I've had.
