oh noez! I live in a densely populated area too (anyone here familiar with SBF? Bay Area,CA)

I trust him because he's a very calm person. I've seen him do stupid things, but I've been his passenger in his old sup'ed up car and he wouldn't drive aggresively at all. Truth be told, i didn't want to chance riding it myself and he is one of the only people i know that ride that were available that day to come with me. After saying that, he did almost wreck a few blocks after we started coming home, but it wasn't his fault. Stupid SUV drivers always on their phones and futzing with their navigations...

 

same here.. my dad rides a bike 5X the value of mine, so i trusted him with it to go get my tire changed for me. Other than that, i taught a frat brother to ride, the rest of my miles are mine alone.

 

Congrats on the new ride. Bein a rider will make u a better driver and then really realize how sucky most drivers are. Don't ride beyond ur means just startin out. i did and laid down my first bike the day i made the 1st payment. with the msf u should get an insurance discount too.

 

Hello & Welcome!!

Nice bike!!!
