What a beautiful beastie!! (Beautiful lady, too!)

My R* is my first bike, too. One thing I've found, is that there are a ton of helpful people here, and no one flames us n00bs for silly questions. Congratulations and good luck with it. Have you taken a riding/safety course? If you have, good for you!! If you haven't, check into it, because it's most definitely worth the time and money.

Re:My First Bike 3 Years, 9 Months ago  
Sure have it is compulsory to do a riding course here to obtain your licence its done over two days, you are drilled on basic emergency braking and controlled gearing down, slalom runs(for handling confidence), suburban riding, motorway riding, and most importantly rider attitude......and a heap of other bits and tests, dosen't make you walk out ten foot tall and bullet proof, just confident enough to mix it with the traffic, nothing will beat expierience ever, but hey I kinda like the idea of riding every day to biuld that up.....
