2014 ' I'm going for a ride' thread
Hey guys, weather is getting better.
I can't remember if there already was a thread like this, but a new thread for a new season haha.
Post in here if you're up to ride, or if you're heading out soon and want to see if other people want to join you.

Best advice is to go to riding school, and then even more advanced riding school like A.C.T. Not saying you can't ride but I would rather up your survivability. Especially if you are new starting on a 600.

OK, let's keep this thread for its intended purpose. General advice should be directed to the "The maybe official quick motorcycle question/news not worthy of a new thread, thread"
I want to keep this specifically for organising rides.
On that note, I'll be out riding this afternoon, anyone care to join me?

If you went to school and learned on a cruiser type of motorcycle... just be wary that the R6 doesn't have a very tight turning radius.  You don't notice it doing normal left turns or right turns but I noticed it doing U-turns.
I learned on a CBR 125 and Rebel 250 at Pro Ride and I could bust u-turns on those things no problem. But when I first got the R6 (2003), I was surprised that my turning radius (on U-turns) is a little bit bigger and I had to be a bit more picky about where I do that maneuvre.
'03 R6 is the only thing I've ever ridden though so I don't know if the same can be said with newer versions or other sportbikes.

Take the course, then buy the bike. Not the bike first.

This is good advice, do the course first. There will always be another bike. Maybe after the course you'll find you like a different style of riding/bike anyway.
