Default My first ride around the block!

Woo hoo! Got my motorcycle delivered tonight and I went for a spin and put a measly 3 miles on her before I had to put her down...to sleep I mean! [8D] It got dark pretty quickly and I was quite sad until I realized that I could get on her again tomorrow! Wheee!

Here are some pics, pardon the mugshot please.

I haven't named her yet ... <--- edited text! LOL, now how about some recommendations for boots and overpants?

A few things I did notice whilst riding around for 3 miles, I am having quite a hard time finding that shift lever, yikes! More practice will hopefully fix this. I did do a lot of figure 8's going tigher and tighter but not enough to scrape pegs like I did in class, perhaps the fear of dumping the new bike has something to do with this? Hehe. Nevertheless I will continue onward and hopefully master this wonderful sport and one day be able to venture past my subdivision. Wish me luck! (read as please please please don't drop the bike)

Looks good man. dont worry bout the peg scrapping, it will all come in due time. Just enjoy the bike and ride safe. Take advice from 056r and give "HER" a name, u can still call "HER" blue but please refer to the bike as "HER" name is blue. LOL enjoy

I need to find some overpants and some nice boots. I had to go with sneakers for now coz my Timberlands were giving me hell and my Harley boots were too large, major suckage. Any recommendations?

As I was surfing the net I came across some anime chick with blue hair, her name was Mai Mai so I officially dub my ride...Mai Mai. No it wasn't hentai! At least...I don't think so...hehehehe.
