Welcome from Western Washington. I can remember when I thought 25 was FAST. Now I go screamin down the freeway at 70+.

It will come, it just takes time. I only learned to ride last April.. and I've put 8,000+ on my bike since I started. This is my first bike too.

Enjoy and Congrats! on the bike.

How long have your girls been riding and have you ever thought of taking a Motorcycle safety course.

chicanagirl mentions she has a vulcan and uses it on long trips. I think she knows how to drive well enough.
