Report The Employee!!!!!

I think that falls into our responsibility as citizens, especially as motorcyclists, to report BS like this!

Love the R6 (R1 even more) but being a "rook" and all, I wonder is the R6 a good starter bike?

What scares the crap out of me even more then the cotton heads that can't/shouldn't be driving, is the cotton heads that decide to go out to dinner and have a few drinks! Dragin and I had some moron creeping into our lane one night, and AFTER yelling at the idiox box, we noticed he had on an arm band from a bar!

My 2 cents...

Learning in the dirt is very forgiving a packed full of opportunities to learn lessons that tend to be very painful and expensive on the street.

If that is not a viable option...
Do you posses self control and common sense?
If the answer is yes, then it is worth considering.
If the answer is no, then do not get a bike.

My experience has been that females tend to be less inclined to do the stupid stuff that we males do... feel free to derive from that what you wish

You just need to understand that you will crash and it is your responsibility to minimize the likelihood and impact.

Wear Your Gear and Be Heads-Up!
