lol, this thread is entertaining… I guess I probably should learn on something crappier first, but in the end bikes are so damn cheap who really cares if i put down a 3000 dollar bike anyways? lol Was looking at Kawasaki vulcans, and I also kinda dig that Vstar [quote=“EvilJay,post:12,topic:33534"”] I’ve got a honda rebel 250 for sale, if you want to learn on that [/quote] how much and do i have to fix anything on it ? ---

Harley guy chiming in… I give the wave to anything with 2 wheels. About 75% of crotch rockets DO NOT wave back. 100% of Cruisers do. The other night I went out of my way to turn around and go help a broke down crotch rocket. He was a prick and didn’t even say thanks. Tell me something, who has the attitude ? ---
