Texas is a big state so I'll say east texas :-) about an hour from the Louisiana border Anyone from ANYWHERE close??? I'm so very close to having my bike back on the road and would love to have some riding buddies!

 

So, I've been on a bike a few occasions. I've rode my dad's '01 Suzuki Boulevarde on said occasions. Unfortunately, the only other bike we have laying around is a cbr1000rr and I've been wanting to get into riding sports bikes. I KNOWWWWW it's HIGHLY unrecommended anyone starts on one though. Any advice on learning on it that won't cost me too much money? I don't have the money to drop on another motorcycle (my cars are the money pits here &#128514 but I don't want to end up in the hospital either. Any advice is welcome!
