Jazzgeek...that was great!
And to the 17 yo buying a USED R6...I commend you...I simply had the money to buy new, but if I could go back, I could have bought a very nice used 600cc for the same $$.
Your first bike really
shouldn't be new...because I can promise you this. IT WILL GET DROPPED. One day, somehow...it's never even your fault...just stupid $hit...like "your buddies cousin's sister (or whatever) decides when you aren't looking they will try to sit on it".....and over goes the bike
Very little damage, but if you are the first ever owner, it can be heartbreaking
Good luck, and never ever ever ride w/out atleast having a permit, or license whichever is required where you live.
AND NEVER RIDE WITHOUT A HELMET. I know. I sound like your mom, but as a 911 Dispatcher, you wouldn't believe how many calls I take in the summer where "some punk kid was doing the speed limit", crashed, and now is paralyzed, decapitated, amputee, or just flat out.....
dead.
Not saying anyone on here is a punk kid,
just know that the boundries of your body are much less than that of the bike.
Good luck,
Josh
