new to the vfr world

:welcome:
Congrats, & I hope You get many miles of enjoyment out of your Ole-Girl.

 

Congrats and welcome to the site. You have to post a pic or we'll be forced to insult you and ridicule your masculinity. (We're going to do that either way, but just post up a pic).

Glad to see you're taking the course - good thinking. Obviously money is tight - as it is for many - but get yourself some gear, too. Not just a helmet, but some gloves, pants, jacket and some sort of boot. Even a work book is better than sneakers. You don't need a leather suit for $800, but some textile or mesh pants and jacket is an excellent start.

There are tons of "close out" deals to be found on safety gear. Here's a link to just one site, that gives good reviews as well.

I did post a pic from the spot were I baught the bike across the street from a women's prison

 

Here it is, & I really like the Seat. :thumbsup:

 

Nice for $500 wooooooooooooow BTW bike is not cheap to maintain like car. So don't be suprise
Welcom to the madness, glad to know you taking MS class. Be safe and let us know if you need any help.

 

man you guys are great there on this site. my wife baught me new oakley wind jackets a bell helmet and riding boots so im almost ready and excited

 

my first problems i had to replace the carb cluster and derust the tank but i did it all myself and was pretty cheap

 

Get yourself a MC Riding Jacket with body Armour or atleast good thick patches/re-enforcements. When you drop your bike, "Yes when" you will be glad you did!
I have Road-Rash scars to prove just how Hard-headed I was when young.. :tsk:
