Survived my first outting with the bike!
And so far I love it... dare I say I enjoy it more then my car? 
The bike is very easy to handle, with a smooth power band, it just glides. I cruised around my neighborhood for a good hour, then went to the Wyckoff car show and did a max of 35 and it was just smooth sailing.

Just my permit, rode with one of my good friends. It was a nice casual lesson so I learned a lot and just enjoyed myself.
I couldn't stop thinking about it today so I was pretty psyched!

after this riding season is over and you still jonesing to ride it, than i would suggest you contact one of the riding clubs and go take a track coarse - NOT so you can drive like a moron, but to use as a learning tool - the instructors will in one day show you more than you learn on your own in a year about cornering, braking, and what not to do if something comes up - just a suggestion have a shop full of fast bikes - not all know how to ride them even tho they say they do -jz

Amazing bike, stay safe on that thing bro.  I wanted the black and grey one with the carbon fiber decal kit and carbon fiber rear seat cover.

Someone please call me to ride, all my friends keep backing out! No wonder so many people ride alone on their permits... (I didn't, I'm just saying)
