Default Hello

My name is Bruce and I`m new to riding a bike..After my divorce I had no reason not to buy one , so I purshased a new 2007 CBR600rr in black...I had never ridden before but had an idea of the concept (learnt to drive a in Brasil where they only have sticks) I`m still braking it in , I gues its recomended tot to go over 6000 rpms on the first 300 miles (Does everybody agree with that?) its been real hard but I`ve only have 70 miles to go....need as many tips as I can get...thank in advance

Hey Bruce,
I hear you loud n clear! I've always wanted my bike licence but now at 32 it's better late than than 33 eh? It's gotta say something for exes! Okay, here's my $00.02:
I don't know what licencing laws u guys have wherever u are (I'm in anally retentive western australia), but we're restricted to 250cc for one year, then have to do the exact same road test (usually on a 500cc something) to get our 'open' (250&ltlicence. Anyway, if I can pass on some advice that was drummed into me: get ur *** on the bike, do a course, ride, practice lessons ride, pratcice etc. You have a quicker bike than we're able to legally ride at the start. But at the end of the day- it's just a bike. You are the onein control. We should never stop learning how to utilise and maintain that control. Upskill, and practice, practice, practice. Stay
