1) you will lay down the bike. Everyone always lays their first bike down. If you have not already, don't worry, you will

2) ride like you believe everyone is out to get you. Always imagine that cars do not see you or are actually trying to hit you. 99% of the time its a car vs bike crash, its because the car did not see the bike. If you ride like that, you will always be aware of what other cars are doing

3) someone pisses you off/cuts you off - fold in their mirror. Best ever, pisses them off and you cannot get in trouble for kicking their door

my first bike was a FZR400, that 600 you are getting is a lot of bike. Respect that and you will be fine

K1200S
Gentlemens Sport Bike

K1200R
Naked version of above. Better ergos for me.

wasn't planning on flaming... who would I be to talk, the last year i lived with my parents i made more than either of them.

i learned one important lesson the hard way. toys are fun, but property is far more important.
