Hello guys,

I have found this forum just trying to search about bikes, many informative things on this forum. I am a noob at riding period (never been on a bike), trying to get my license and hopefully a bike, (got to convince the wife, she is not scared of me riding, scared of other people on the road!!!) I am considering any type of beginner bike, I have read many posts saying that earlier models of a cbr will do, f3?f2? Of course, money will be an issue, lol, that is why I am not in a hurry, I am in a way, but you know how that is, hahahaha. Basically, I signed up in this forum to get some helpful tips from you experienced riders so I can hopefully join you guys on the road, lol. I am just posting to say hi and get all the helpful tips you can give me as a VERY NOOBIE soon to be rider, hahahahahaha... thanks in advanced.

Hi and [sm=welcomesign.gif]to the site!
BEFORE buying a bike please take a MSF (Motorcycle Safety Foundation) course. The beginners class will help you tremendously in bike control and all other aspects of basic bike control.
Good luck and be safe!

 

+1 Take the course. I did more than 10 years ago and still use things I learned it today. Whether riding or driving.

 

will do, is there only one course for california or are there different ones??? I
