Hello,
I'm a total novice. I've had 4 hours of bike lessons so far, and have learnt a few valuable lessons like a Kawasaki ER-6 is heavy and hurts when it lands on your foot.
And not to brake in a turn!
I have a long uphill struggle before I even get on the road. Hope your tips and advice will help me through it

Firstly Welcome to the forums, there's a right mix of people on here mostly alright and a wealth of imformation too.
You'll soon get the hang of balancing the weight of bikes ( i dropped my big bike a few times when i first had it )
good luck for your biking future

welcome! You'll soon get used to the 'weight' of the bike. I've never been able to get both toes on the ground but managed to pass my DAS and ride around on my 400 everyday to and from work fine... ____________________ www.artridertraining.co.uk |
