QUOTE=guns01;92206]i dont know if they have it available where you are but a lot of the colleges around us have basic and advanced rider courses for street riding. it even lowers your interest costs also. hell, i have known guys that have been riding for 20 + years that said they learned some cool stuff from the courses. i had to take them because of my old job required it but it lowered my insurance 40%[/QUOTE]

B2J4 take this advice... I got my first dirtbike at age 4. 1979 jr50... I still have it as a matter of fact..I grew up with a motor and two wheels under me. Anyways.. Got my first street bike in 02. I bought a brand new GSXR1000. went 4 up in the back and 520 chain and it was on.. A girl I was dating got me a beginners street course for my birthday. At first I thought it was an insult considering I'd been on bikes for 20+ years. It was acutally the begenners race course. They call it Street course so if you crash your insurance still covers the bike. Anyways.. I highly recommend fininding one of these. They will teach you exactly how to ride a machine like yours.. Do you know ,youre supposed to warm up your tires when you first start riding?? Do you know how to warm them?? little things like that could save your life..I have some pics of me on the track somewhere I'll post up..trackday.giftrackday2.jpg
