Evening everyone
It seems to be the "in thing" to introduce yourself here so I better not start off on the wrong foot.
I just traded a project car for an 02 CBR600 and thus far I love it. I am brand new to riding and picked the winter as the best time to find a bike. this gives me plenty of time to research, learn and of course practice when able on the bike. I've never rode before but have always thought about it. Well I finally caved and got the bike. One ride around the block for 2 minutes proved I was right. Man is that a great feeling.

I have lots to learn and will be anxiously awaiting spring so I can put my newly found hobby to a gentle start.

Thanks all
-Eric

+1 on the MSF and Gear obviously. Safety first. Plus a good jacket is cheaper than a skin graph.

NOw that I got the fun stuff out of the way...

DO you have a wife / girlfriend / Mother ? If yes, do you have pictures of any of them?

Please post.

Alsoooo I guess it would be cool to see some pictures of the bike.

Thanks.

Also if any of the above mentioned pics are not rated higher than what you might consider PG-13 please PM them to me so I can make help you decide.
