Welcome.
Hey doogstar, where'd you get your stickers on the tail? I want to get rid of the stock white one.

RE: My 1st bike ever!
Welcome to the 954 Club buddy. Nice looking bike, sweet deal too. Yeah, take it easy the first year or two and learn the roads and the bike. Overconfidence kills as many new riders as unattentive drivers. This bike handles like a lightweight razor, so you can go off the road faster than you can blink, so, both hands on the grips and focus all your attention.
My suggestion is no I-Pod or music and no passengers at least for a while. Make sure you wear all the gear, leather jacket, pants, gloves, helmet, boots. Get the best gear you can afford... it can save your life. Learn how to brake hard and swerve to avoid deer / other animals / pedestrians / cars. Any other questions you have let us know.
And keep your tailpipe stock unless you really want to get an aftermarket one, just remember that the aftermarket exhausts are pretty loud by comparison. (trust me, i've lost a lot of my hearing because of them)
