[QUOTE="GnometownHero, post: 4087896, member: 47828"] I have owned Hondas, Buell and Harley, these days I would seriously look at Triumph, Indian and Royal Enfield. Get a bike you can sit on feet flat on the ground Rider safety course buy good riding gear and wear it, wear gloves and quality boots, no flip flops, crocks or light shoes full face helmets can save you from facial road rash, flying rocks, road trash and bumblebee stings learn to see a cars wheels turning when it is supposed to be stopped at intersections and driveway pullouts, subtle car rolling out not as easy to catch as seeing a wheel slowly rolling learn to ride real slow with feet on the pegs and become balanced, I used to be able to stop at a stop sign and not put a foot down, but cops look to see the foot down anybody can ride a motorcycle fast but finesse at slow speed will save your butt and make for better handling at all speeds Suave AloeVera hair conditioner is good to use on road rash to help it heal. I used motorcycle for work commute for many years, never doubt that everyone on the road will run over you or crowd you into a curb or guardrail taking the ditch beats hitting a vehicle DEER, they will kill you carry a tool roll, duct tape, spare fuses, tire plug kit learn as much as possible about your bike mechanical well being buy the best quality tires you can [/QUOTE]
