Hey, got my first bike coming next week, very excited (Reido)

[Reido]

Hey,
I've been looking though this forum for the past couple months in the build up to getting my first bike.
Im 16 and my parents have been bugging me to get my learners (car) license for quite some time now.. and in usual teenage rebellion i told them i didnt want a car, i wanted a bike :headbang: and thus here i am.

so anyway i wanted to get Honda VTR, but ended up getting a CBF, Dad wanting to a new bike yarda yarda yarda. Its getting delivered next Wednesday :woohoo:

So guess i better get out there and get some gear.. ohh Quasi i want those Kevlar sliders of yours =] and maybe a jacket too. hmm i might have to get another job to cover those and the insurance too.... joy

Reido

[BadCompany]

Speaking of Quasi gear, is there stuff waterproof?

[Reido]

umm dunno actually, but that leather / cordura jacket thats on sale is. apparently

[YellowDog]

Good luck with the new bike Reido.

You will find that the cost for all the riding necessities pushes the price skywards.

You'll need lots of jobs to pay for motorcycling! :innocent:

Well done with the purchase. Just take it easy on the new bike until you get a good feel for it. And we want pics!

[Reido]

Dads assisting with insurance, and pics as soon as the bike arrives. Promise

Lucky little bastard. I had to rip apart an investment to pay for my first bike (being a KR150).

[Reido]

awww lol,
bet it was worth it though.

[CookMySock]

That's awesome dood. The chix will flock to you now lol.

Now you have fun, but be cool on it ok ? Us old cunts hate reading about 16 y/o young fellas splattered across other things, like power poles and moving cars - it makes our asshole pucker something cronic, and then we get that dissaproving glare - nasty!

So get mental, but stay alive you hear.. nuff sed. :apint:

Oh and welcome to kb.

You have started out well. Yes as said, get the right gear for safety, and stay alert on the road. Its the idiots in their cars that you wanna watch out for too.:scooter:

[Reido]

My ride to school and back is very linear which should hopefully make is safer for me.

Try having a wife! It has taken me 5 years to convince her that i can get a bike :( ahhhh
Can't wait to see some pics dude! but all good things come to those that wait, and those that shout and curse the loudest:jerry:

[Reido]

5 years, ahh.. took me about a whole of 5 mins to convince my Dad.
and my mother doesnt have a say in this, i dont live with her anymore.
but i still love her, she's lending me $1000. :clap:
