Re: FH is a moron!
I agree, its not that easy...what kind of bike is it, a harley type bike or a racing bike? racing bikes you really have to learn how to move your body with the bike when making turns, sharp turns can really throw you off, bumps and a bunch of things...i know people who have done things like that and they learned their lesson

yep it`s one of those racing bikes. i mean he does have experience riding....quads and dirtbikes and such, but this is his first motorcycle experience. and like you said seeing as how it is a racing type bike it`s harder to learn the body movements! i`m glad he`s ok and having fun but i just wish he would have told me prior that he was going out that far! he hasn`t been much further then around the block untill today!!

oh i'm so glad, and that is true about the road test, he will get licensed at the safety course there like for five days. i really want my own bike but fh wont let me his brother was killed at age 18 23 yrs ago on a bike . RIDE SAFE, AND MY FAVORITE QUOTE , THERES NOTHING LIKE THE WIND IN YOUR FACE AND THE VIBRATION BETWEEN YOUR LEGS ,,, HEHE LOL, FH HATES WHEN I SAY THAT.

hmmm im trying to remember if that is true and what people i know did...i kinda do remember though that someone was gonna take that course bc they had signed up for it but they also had scheduled their road test when they were there...the course might help out with insurance for the bike, getting a discount, which i think is where its helpful...i cant remember the exact details though
so wait your FH doesn't have a permit? tell him to be careful bc if cops want they can be real stupid with that...if you have a permit and not the license you can ride with others who have a license and that is fine but if you have no permit they can take your bike away, they did that to people i know

yeah i do remember the insurance part....im trying to remember the whole part about getting a license...i do remember the permit you just take a test the way you do for a car obviously, and then they went for their license, i remember the practicing over and over to do the figure 8 lol, but maybe thats how they decided to do it instead of doing the course not sure

Re: FH is a moron!
no no!! he has a permit! he actually got it like 2 weeks before he even bought the bike. i`m sure a lot of people do that and i know most of them never get their license because it`s so easy to just go but i`m going to make sure he gets his.
