OP~ If you rode "years ago" and have forgotten what to do, then take a training course. Because you are, in fact, a new rider. I guarantee you'll learn something.
I agree with you Norty Flatz. Even when I did ride "years ago" it was only for a summer. I found a course at the local community college that's 2 1/2 days long I am probably going to take. Plus I hear you get a discount on insurance by doing that!!!! I'm confident I could get to know the bike and get the license at the DMV but the course is only $20 and I get to ride someone else's motorcycle for two days Haha. I'm confident but humble enough to know that they can teach me things I don't know about riding. And the pictures finally came through!!!
