Default Whats up?

So, whats up everybody? I'm David. Currently live in Huntsville, AL. I'm selling my car as soon as I can, ask if ya wanna know anything about it, it's a 2000 BMW 328. After considering the different bikes there are out there I've decided I want a CBR. Brand new to riding so any advice you wanna give is welcomed, and feel free to tell me when I'm being an idiot. I'm lookin for a 600, possibly an old stunt bike to start on. That way I figured I could treat it badly and not feel bad abt it. Umm, I dunno what else to say. Once I get used to riding a bit I'm gonna try to make an electric bike, I'll let you guys know when I decide to start on that. Well other than that I dunno what to say other than I love the off topic thread abt thongs ahha. cya around

Yeh, I've owned a lot of cars already and I'm just 20. I know when NOT to use the throttle... but I do occasionally tear it up on the roads . I can outrun some of the bikes in town here on backroads in my cage so I know what fast feels like. Don't need to find out what it is on a bike... yet.

oh.. and this is MY ACCT back off :O

Ohh hell yes it would, I can't wait. I just hope I can find a good deal like the ones I've seen in the classifieds on this forum. Any suggestions on what bike to get? A friend suggested a f4i saying that he's seen 'em run for 50k miles. I'm not looking to spend too much as it will be the bike I learn on (and make all of my mistakes on)

Welcome! I am currently in Alabama. This is a great forum and I am sure you will love it!

I hope this isn't against the rules, but you might also want to check out alsportbike.com - for local riders and stunters.

Also, when you get the bike, be sure to take a trip to 29derams in Central Alabama.

Welcome to the forum! It's strange that someone new to riding doesn't want a brand new 1kRR I think the F4i is a great bike but it's still a handful.

About that beemer ... only backroad I've seen that one will take me on is a dirt road ... Chain don't play on dirt [8D]
