    man, I rode for 15 yrs without a license. Funny thing, it actually teaches you to ride much safer and within the law - last thing you need riding without a license is getting pulled over... so, you ride carefully.

    Ride it!
    He has a point.

    I was a lot more cautious riding on my learners with no L plates than I am now.
    What you have in your heart will be revealed through what you have in your life.

    If things are going badly in our circumstances, the answer to what is happening to us outwardly is more often than not found in the mirror.

    Agreed. Pretty much everything I did while I had mine in the garage waiting to sit my full including making the "VROOM" noises.

    Congrats on the nice bike!!

    I would store it somewhere away from home if you want to avoid temptation...
    Although that didn't quite work for me, I still had to visit it... and ended up doing several illegal rides....

    Dont want anything to go wrong with my new toy =]

    Though i can start her up, and pootle up/down the street every now and then i suppose =]
    Mmmm, mid sized bikes are nice - good balance of lightness & performance.
    Congrats on the nice new machine!

    2 months of not riding it though? I presume that is the minimum and you can't do anything to reduce that time (I don't think you could get an exemption for an R6). That has to suck big time! I guess you'll just have to go a little crazy for a couple of months.
