And i want one even more!!!!
My friend Evan has an 01 Yamaha YZF600 and i got to ride it. he is the only friend that would let me ride their bike. I was helping my friend fix his air ride when Evan rode up. He told me he didn't like my rims, i told him to F off.lol He then got in my car and started adjusting my seat. I told him that if he takes off in my car im taking his bike. He looked at me, started the car and put it in 1st. I told him again if he takes it im takin his bike. He said "Don't wreck it" and took off. I hopped on his bike, started it up and took off. 1st TIME I HAD EVER RIDDEN A BIKE AND DIDN'T EVEN STALL IT!! I didn't think i could ride it. I mean, i kinda knew i could, but didn't trust myself. i rode it down the street and came back. Shifting was a lil tricky cause i was wearing flip-flops, but i still got it. i came back and shut it off and he asked me if i ever rode before. i told him no, it was the first time anyone even let me start their bike let alone ride it. I was soooo frickin excited. I want one now. just wanted to share my joy for the night.

YZFs are hot. First time I rode my friends bike I popped out the clutch and wrecked through a fence.

That story totally sounded like the beginning of a porn. I was waiting for the funky music to kick in.
Helmet! Especially your first ride. --------------------  |

[right][snapback]316236[/snapback][/right] It's a straight-line bike. When you start riding you'll realize that 95% of the fun is cornering. -------------------- |

I go home on the weekends to work on my various projects. My mom came down to my lil' shop and said "this is a good hobby.. you'll have it the rest of your life." To this I sad, "Naa, I'll die at 30 of a motorcycle accident."
To this, she was pissed.  lol

I got a bike phat and I have had a bike since I have been 16. I have had many different bikes throughout the years. I was crazy when i was younger, but Im much more mellower on my bike now. Learn about countersteering and how to use your front brake hard, it might save your life if a situation ever happens.

Try off road riding too. Dirtbikes are the way to go. I just got my license about 2 months ago now. At least with riding off road, if you get yourself killed, its your fault. Can't blame anyone for running into you.
Have fun. Bikes rock. --------------------  psalm 69 |
