First Real Ride
Well other than being new here I had my first real ride since taking the MSF class which was about two months ago. Went alot better than I expected other that one little scare where someone in an SUV thought i was gonna try and make the yellow light and realized I was stopping so they proceed to swerve around me and go through the intersection. Other than that it was GREAT!

No pics at the moment but it is a 2006 CBR1000
Yeah I am learning on a liter bike and I do feel very comfortable on it. Its my brother-in-laws and i do plan on getting something not as powerful once I can afford it. When ever he lets me ride it I do make sure i grab a helmet, gloves, and jacket (do not have my own riding shoes/boots yet).

Welcome
Hiyu D-Rail... like the guys already said , your brother in law is very trusting to say the least 
I certainly hope you are respecting his trust in you by going very easy on it ...
Learning on a 1000 ...I assume a 1000F ? is not that unusual , but it is unusual for it to be on a loaner ...
Welcome to the CBRF ...
You take care and stay upright mate ...
While you are learning , grab a free down loadable manual from the links below to read about your CBR so you are a little prepared when you get it ...
Maintenance is prolly the next most important thing to rider skill ..
BTW : Need any help around here just PM me :-)
Some fast find links are below mate ....use them with our compliments ..

I assume a 1000F ?
Unfortunately, we get no more 1000Fs
.... (although we can still dream...) It's a 2006, so it must be an RR.
Like others have said, D-Rail... you have a very trusting brother in law. I wouldn't let one of my REAL siblings ride my CBR, and it's 14yrs old..lol..
