Hi everyone. I posted on these forums about a year ago talking about the bike i was going to get with my hard-saved money… turned out i couldnt afford much when i factored in the price of leathers/helmet and such, so i put it off…I have now (finally) bought my first bike.
Honda NSR 125
happy edit:I don’t really use the name UberMonkey anymore… too long, from now on i’ll be Mooney
i’m looking forward to the londonbikers trips. Its going to be such a weird feeling… I’m a student and as such a social gathering without alcohol is quite alien to me, but a gathering of bikers will generally mean no alcohol…looking forward to it
yeah… well, i’ll be learning to ride when the roads are a bit slippery, so from the start i’ll get used to being extra careful for some super safety…
then when the good weather comes back in it’ll seem easy! =]
Theres a motorcycle society here at uni, but when i spoke to them during the society fayre they said they were going to be hiring a minibus to go see a race or show or something… kinda defeats the point of being a motorcycle society if you don’t ride to places in my opinion >< Can’t wait to meet you all and ride somewhere interesting… though i’ll just end up feeling horribly inferior with my L plates still on… i plan to get rid of those ASAP though, how many hours riding experience do you think it would take before someone is ready to take their test? i plan on riding for about 2 months (riding a LOT), then doing a 2 day intensive course+test. I’d like to get rid of the L plates (and restrictor plate) as soon as possible.
