		I've been a motorcycle fanatic for the longest... Now my time came to own one and this motorcycle is a challenge to me due to I learn how to ride on a simple a lay-back motorcycle. Riding a motorcycle gives me the freedom and thrill!!! Also a girl riding it is sexy and dearing.

		This is a good beginner bike for those people who don't know how to ride. But I think you should practice going straight with a bicycle first otherwise you will wobble around and you might fall.
