    Hello! I'm a brand new rider, I just picked up my first bike; a 1990 VFR750F. I've been bubbly and giddy since I got the motorcycle and it's all that I can talk about these days. The bike is a bit rough but nothing a little love and wrenching can't fix, I look forward to meeting you guys! :)

    Welcome to The World! Be sure to peruse the site for tips and mods for your bike. These bikes are great and can last a long time but not without a little work and maintenance.

    Welcome Grasshopper - - -- Something to think about as a newbie...
    When you first start riding, you get 2 buckets.....You get a full bucket of luck, and an empty bucket of skill. Your job is to fill up the skill bucket before you use up all the luck bucket.

    Best Wishes.

    Welcome,is that a new rider on street bikes or do you have dirt bike experience?
    But anyways, a training course should definitely be in the near future for you my friend, may just save you’re life, plus pretty sure a discount happens when you purchase insurance.
    Be safe and ATGATT
    All the gear all the time please
