18 i beleive (when you're a legal adult, aside from drinking)

ooh i think you're right. i wonder why I thought 19?

stevo! finally found the 250 i wanted,

i haven't contact the seller yet though lol. i hope he does'nt sell it anytime soon.

I would seriously consider getting some driving experience driving a standard before taking a stab at a bike

nice! more 250 love, i'm in the process of reassembling mine :p
(wanna PM me a link?)

It wasn't too bad for me...coming from Indonesia...everyone ride bikes there...

in between cars...side road bside a ditch...the sidewalk....its far more dangerous there...

all in all she was used to the fact that my dad and my bro rode aswell so its fine for me :)

My mom is totally against it, so I knew I couldn't get a bike while living in their house. I got married last summer and moved out and finally could begin to consider getting a bike...except my wife wouldn't let me either. Before we got married, she was like "oh yeah, you can get it if you want". As soon as we got married, she was like "no bike, I don't want you to die and leave me alone with the mortgage". Anyways, after a lof of convincing, she compromised but only allowed me to get a 250 cc bike to start, which I guess is probably a good idea anyways :)

i said mom, i'm going to buy a bike. then she tells me a story about how her and i think either my sister or my aunt was with her when they saw a motorcycle accident happen right infront of them and the guy went flying and died. she said thats why my dad couldnt get a bike before, she wouldnt let him. now shes alright with it cause she knows im all into it n shit haha.

Full gears will not save you from nasty accident. Check out bcsportbikes. There was a father with full leather gear die at s2s in a nasty accident 3 years ago.
It reduces the physical pain, but when it's too server, you still die.

The best way to protect you from nasty accident is to ride with caution and always foresee any possible incidences on the road.

ride carefully everyone.

My mom told me I couldn't live with at home if I got a motorcycle. So I got my license, took training, bought a sportbike and left it at my friend's house.

Dominated by woman your whole life. LOL jp man ;)

Sneaky snake!

The first day I rode up on my bike to my mother's house she looked at it, she looked at me, she shook her head and said "You're just like your father..."

My mom and my dad were against it. So I just said its my friends bike and I'm thinking about buying it, just doing a test ride. And that test ride lasted 3 years until one day my dad asked, "You know you should wait till you buy the bike before you start putting an exhaust on it?"

"Um yeah about that..."

After that I told them and their reaction was, "Don't want to hear about it or see it, just don't die."
