22 started riding when I was 21 got an 06 1k a mistake a lil to much power for a begginer
Yeah that is ALOT!! of power for a beginner, but as long as you take it easy for a while and take your time in riding it you should be fine. REALLY TAKE TOUR TIME. it'll pay off in the long run enjoy!

^^^ I think it was a "Joe" or "Jim" (or something "J") that was later 60's... maybe 68 that rode a '07 or '08 Gix thou last I recall... so at 75 years, you are THE MAN!:cheers


...interestingly... after a couple of the newer thousands... I'm back to the original oilers and LOVING it! (Something about the aural ecstasy of that proverbial cacophony of cams giving me a perpetual hummer as I straddle the camel-hump tank on these old classics...)


Anyway... keep riding... you're never too old to ride, guys!:punk

Re: GSX-R1000 owners, how old are you?

I'd call you a CHILD yet if you weren't playing with a MAN'S MACHINE as chronicled in your sig...:punk


Ride on and live long!:chucks

yes im still young but far from a child lol and learned how to fly and ride at the same age 16yrs old. so 11 yrs on the street and a few years on dirt. hence the mans machine in my sig which is not my first one also:chucks:punk and always willing to learn new things.
thanks :)
