Default New Guy here from Indianapolis

I just picked up my first bike today and I am already in love. Got a 2002 Cbr 600 F4i. I have taken it around the neighborhood about 10 times already to try and get this whole bike thing down since I have never ridden a bike. It feels very well balanced and easy to maneuver since I am only 5'8" and 135lbs.

In the background is my other addiction a 1991 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX all wheel drive turbo that I road race and drag race. it has about 400 HP and is fun as hell to drive on the street though I think this bike is gonna be my new addiction.

I am going to just get used to riding the bike around close to the house for the rest of the season until I am more confident since my first time even trying to ride a bike was yesterday. But I took it on about a 15 mile ride today around town to do some errands and have not dropped it yet so I am pleased with myself.

I live in Fishers at 131st and SR 37 North. All of the Abate Classes are full until the end of the year which sucks.
