I just started riding this week
I had no idea how to ride
I seen a dual sport bike on craigslist and copped out
It's a 2005 suzuki dr200
No license
No helmet
No place to store it

I just got a helmet and I'm keeping it in my room
Im just learning now
Practicing not to stall out at lights
My turns on curves are wide
I'm not into speeding
I'm just trying to cruise around the hood driving pass the bus route telling bytches to hop on instead of waiting for that bus

Bruh get a bike u can insure and a licence... u get hit on that thing its a wrap

I have been riding for the last 3 and a half years. I have a Ninja 650. It's been fun. I want something faster though, I'm ready.

I insured the bike already
120 for the year
It's only liability tho
I'm thinking about paying 400 for full coverage tho
They be stealing these bikes out here

I know its not considered cool…but I would go ahead and take a lesson to really learn how to ride.

Don't want to end up like Buck while you trying to holla at something :francis:



Im getting my practice on
The only time I fukk up is when I'm on a light and it turns green and I try to take off fast
I stalled out a couple of times

I do plan on taking a 2 day class and if it all goes well they give you your license right then and there. No need to go to the dmv

I don't got much experience but I'm getting there. I'm not into going fast. That's why I got a dual sport. I'm not even trying to get on the highway. I went 50 the other day and found that fast enough

You'll want to go faster as you get more comfortable. It happens to everyone. My first bike was a ninja 250 and that struggled to get 85. At first I was telling everyone I was happy with the power and didn't see myself really upgrading. After 6 or 7 months on that thing I got power hungry and got a zx6r:banderas:

I could definitely see that happening
I got a super moto so it doesn't go that fast
I could see myself getting a 250 soon

I been riding a 07 Kawasaki ZZR600 for 2 years now. Was my first bike and I love it, but I'm actually thinking I'm going to get a sporty cruiser at some point...

Just had to get it towed to the shop yesterday. Looks like a water pump malfunction.:upsetfavre:........... It's also about that time for preventative/scheduled maintenance...need a new rear tire, probably new rear brakes and/or pads, chain tightened, etc

I definitely agree with those that say take a MSF class (or something similar). They aren't too pricey but you learn a shytload. I taught myself how to ride by watching YouTube but there were tons of things I learned in the class, like countersteering, proper braking, traffic awareness, do's and don'ts. Things that I use every time that I ride.

Take a class, breh. It can save your ass.

I bought a bike last summer and didnt even keep it for the whole season, I hated riding.

Too much stress and paranoia, I couldn't even enjoy it.

A few friends have died riding also, and none of hem were speeding, hey just ran into things and broke their necks, or someone it hen and broke their back/legs/etc.

No thanks. :nah:
